This is a digital copy of a book that was preserved for generations on library shelves before it was carefully scanned by Google as part of a project
to make the world's books discoverable online.
It has survived long enough for the copyright to expire and the book to enter the public domain. A public domain book is one that was never subject
to copyright or whose legal copyright term has expired. Whether a book is in the public domain may vary country to country. Public domain books
are our gateways to the past, representing a wealth of history, culture and knowledge that's often difficult to discover.
Marks, notations and other marginalia present in the original volume will appear in this file - a reminder of this book's long journey from the
publisher to a library and finally to you.
Usage guidelines
Google is proud to partner with libraries to digitize public domain materials and make them widely accessible. Public domain books belong to the
public and we are merely their custodians. Nevertheless, this work is expensive, so in order to keep providing this resource, we have taken steps to
prevent abuse by commercial parties, including placing technical restrictions on automated querying.
We also ask that you:
+ Make non-commercial use of the files We designed Google Book Search for use by individuals, and we request that you use these files for
personal, non-commercial purposes.
+ Refrain from automated querying Do not send automated queries of any sort to Google's system: If you are conducting research on machine
translation, optical character recognition or other areas where access to a large amount of text is helpful, please contact us. We encourage the
use of public domain materials for these purposes and may be able to help.
+ Maintain attribution The Google "watermark" you see on each file is essential for informing people about this project and helping them find
additional materials through Google Book Search. Please do not remove it.
+ Keep it legal Whatever your use, remember that you are responsible for ensuring that what you are doing is legal. Do not assume that just
because we believe a book is in the public domain for users in the United States, that the work is also in the public domain for users in other
countries. Whether a book is still in copyright varies from country to country, and we can't offer guidance on whether any specific use of
any specific book is allowed. Please do not assume that a book's appearance in Google Book Search means it can be used in any manner
anywhere in the world. Copyright infringement liability can be quite severe.
About Google Book Search
Google's mission is to organize the world's information and to make it universally accessible and useful. Google Book Search helps readers
discover the world's books while helping authors and publishers reach new audiences. You can search through the full text of this book on the web

UNIVERSALTST COJIPANIOlf.
SALVATION— rrS MEANINa
Nearly all tbe errora that hive crept into the Chrisdan Churchy
have come in the guise of wonLi that have no place in the Scrip-
tores, or have been gradually perverted from their original import.
The words ^ original sin," ^ trinity," ^ vicarious atonement," are of
the former class, neither name nor doctrine being found in the
Bible; while ** salvation," '* damnation,'* *^ justification,'' and othersi
are of the latter class, the words never having been used by the
Sacred Writers to mean their present ^ Orthodox ** meaniop.
Hence it is not suflEkient to discard popular errors ; we mu&t £t-
criminate between meanings of words^ and save words and pkrmes
from bng continued perversion and abuse. We propoae te do thif
to the present essay, with the word Salvaiion.
It is nowhere used in the Bible to denote salvation from an end*
less hell, or from a state of ceaseless sinning and suffering^ — nor (af
a spiritual deliverance) from the merited and just punishment of
God's law — or from God's wrath and curse (as the penalty of God^i
kw) by Christ's endurance of them as our substitute. It is this
vague and erroneous idea of spiritual salvation by Christ— this
notion of salvation from some penalty yet future and external to the
soul — that has so confused many minds that they can perceive no
absurdity in the fidse charge gravely preferred against UniversaKstt
of believing in a '* salvation in sinJ^ Yet they would laugh if we
were to speak of God's making us happy in misery^ or healthy ta
sickneu, or pure ii poUuiion, or holy ta sin ! Equslly inoongruous,
self-contradictory and ridiculous to our minds is the charge of beUev*
ing in being *' stmed in sin,^* or *^ going to keaven in out mns^ or
our sins in us !
A dear understanding o( and strict adherence to Scripture words
and phrases with Scriptural meanings and usages, will save us and
xedeetu others from many such errors an«t absurdiiica Let us, then^
endeavor to seaich out the meaning and usage of the word salvatioo.
All language begins by expressing the feelings and emotions of
every-day animal life ; and from thence is transferred to the domaio
of phUoaophy and religion. The aohes and pains, the ^rtnta «9D5l
2
16 UNIVERSAUST COMPANION,
desires of the physical frame form the first utterances of sentient
beings. AVhen the affections and intellect begin to develop them-
selves, so far as an analogy is perceived between the mind and the
body, the language used of the one is applied to the other. And
when God wou'.d reveal divine truth, he employs the language tbas
used and applied, to express his will and purpose, by baptisins;^ and
sanctifying the material to the service of explaining the spirituaL
Thus there can be no doubt, salvation was first coneeired of in relation
to deliverance from merely physical hurt, disease or suffering of any
kind — to salve (or save) by healing or covering over with new flesh
and skin, as a wound; or to restore from disease to wholenesa,
soundness, or health. Then it was applied to a similar healing of
the feelings when thev were wounded or had become unhealthy.
And so the word rose nigher and became more refined in^meaning,
when the Holy Spirit applied it to the state of the mind or soul, oon-
ndered as moral ly wounded or diseased — spiritually dying or dead.
Yoo win find it used in all these gradations in the Bible — especially,
in the New Testament, as will be -seen by reference to a few paa«
aages only.
1. The passages we shall quote have, in the original, the same
general phraseology, though rendered vjeuriously in our common ver-
non b^ toe words we have italicised.
Matt ix : 21, 22, in the case of the woman diseased for twelve
years — ** For she said within herself^ If I may but touch his gar^
ment I shall be made whole " — (shall be saved.) ** But Jesu!ii turned
him a^Mut, .ind when he saw her he said, Daughter, be of good com-
fort, thy fiiith hath made the whole ** — (Jiath saved thee,) ^* And the
woman was made trhoW {was saved) *< from that hour."
Mark iii : 4, in the • case of the man with the withered hand —
** And [Jetns] said unto them. Is it lawful to do good on the Sab-
bath days, or to do evil^/o save life, or to kill? But they held
their peace.*
Mark v: 28, m the case of Janus' daughter — "My little daugh-
ter lieth at the point of death ; I pray thee come and lay thy hands
on her that the mag be healed " {may be saved.) Also Luke viii : 50—
''Fear not, beliete only, and she shall he made whoU*^ {shall be
9m>edJ)
Miu*k Ti: 56 — ''And whithersoever Jesus entered into villages,
or dties, or country, they laid the sick in the streets, and besought
him that they might touch if it were but the liorder of his garment ;
and as manj as touched him were made whole ^* {tcere saved^
Luke ?iu : 86, of the demoniac whose possession was transferred
to the fiwine — " sitting nt the feet of Jesus, clothed and in his right
mind .... They, also, which saw it, told them by what means he
that was possessed of the devil was healed " (was saved.)
John XI : 12, of the illness of Lazarus — - "> Then said his disciples,
Lord, if he sleep he shall do well " {be saved.)
Acti it: 9, 10, Peter says, *f If we this dav be examined of the
good deed dene to tie impotent man, by vbat means he is made
AND ALMANAC FOR 185a ' 17
whole ''^ {is saved,) .... ^even by him [Jeius] doth this man
stand here before you whole " (saved.)
Acts xiv : 9, 10, of the Cripple at Lystra — "The same heard
Paul speak ; who steadfastly beholding him, and perceivinff that he
had faith to be healed' ' {to be saved,) ** said with a loud Toiee, Stand
upright on thy feet — and he leaped and walked."
In every one of these passages physical healing or wholing, aalr^
ing or saving, is meant ; yet, in the original the same terms are used
as in reference to purely spiritual salvation.
2. In the following passages the same terms are applied to savixig
from external causes that endangered health or life. We give a lew
pasrages only.
Matt viii : 25, in the tempest at sea — " And his disciples came
to him and awoke him, saying, Lord, save us ; we perish.'*
Mark viii : 35, 36 — ^ For whosoever will save his life Ifsuche, the
animal life], shall lose it; but whosoever shall lose his h£e[vsuche}^
for my sake and the Gospel's, the same shall save it Forwha^
shall it profit a man if he gain the whole world and lose his own
soul [psttche — see above] ? Or what shall a man give in exchange
for his soul [psuche'} ? "
Luke ix : 56 — " For the Son of man is not come to destroy
men's lives, but to save them." Also xxiii : 85 — ^ He saved others,
let him save himself if he be the Christ, the Chosen of God." AlsOt
Terse 39 — *« Save thyself and us."
Heb. xi : 7 — <* Noah prepared an ark to the saving of hif
house."
3. By analogy the word was used in a higher and a spiritual
sense, but still pertaiuing^ to this life^ to denote the cure of morai
maladies, as of physical — dangers and injuries of the xoii/, as of the
body — restorition of .«7)/nVua/ life from mora/ death. Ignorance
and unbelief of God's truth involve torpor and perversion of the
spiritual powers, as atrophy does cessasion of the development of the
animal frame — and so faith in God and divine truth constitute the
nourishment of the soul, as food does that of the budy. S'n,
(whether of non-obedience or transgression,) being opposed to the
moral constitution of man, ** when finished, bringeth forth death "
of a spiritual nature, and is therefore spoken of in the * Scriptures ae
a morai disease. Besides this, it often involves physical disease and
death, also. It is perfectly in accordance with tnis analogy, that the*
Scriptures speak of salvation as applied to man's spiritual condition
in this life. A few examples will be sufficient — it willl)e seen that
they are ail in the pa^t or present tense.
Luke vii : 50, to the woman, at the feast given by Simon the
Pharisee, Jesu3 said — " Thy foith hatk saved thee : go in peace."
By comparing this with verses 47 — 49, it will be seen that this sal-
vation was deliverance from (that is, forgiveness of) sin,
Luke xix : 9, Jesus said to and of Zaccheus -— ** This day if salva^
tion come to this house, forasmuch as he also is sl sou qC iAm2Qa»&»
For the Sao of Mtui it gome to se^ nA to taoe \SnX^\2»^\a>8asfc.^^
18 UxVIVERSALIST COMPANION,
Acts ii: 47 — ** And the Lord added to the church daily such u
should be saved " —literally, "" the saved.'*
Rom. Tiii : 24 — *^ For we are saved by hope ; but hope that ii
Men is not hope," &c
1 Corin. i : 18 — " For the preaching: of the croM is to them
that perish foolishness ; but unto us which are saved, it is the power
of God."
Titusiii: 4, 5 — ** But ajier that the kindness and loTe of God
our Saviour toward nan appeared, not by works of rij^hteouanesi
wfaieh we have done, but according to his mercv, He saved u» by
the washing of regeneration and renewing of the Holy Ghost"
In these instances the salvation Arom &!in, by faith — from a lost
eonditioD— from a state without divine hope — from a perishing
estate — from an impure and unrenewed condition, by Divine favor*-
is spoken of as already effected, and is undoubtedly a Gospel salva-
tloo — a salvation unto ^ eternal life ; " for, says Jesus, (John xvu:
8,) ^ This is Hfe eternal, that they might know Thee, the only true
Ciod, and Jesus Christ whom Tbou hast sent.**
4. But all processes of salvation in this world of imperfect reforms
and impeded progress, are mere types and shadows, intimationa and
prelibatioos of a perfect chani^e and endless projn'ess in the immortal
atate — and in reference to this purely spiritual existence we find the
terms of healing, restoring and redeeming used in a still higher
tense ; for it* is not merely a resurrection from sin toward hoUttees,
bat a rasunecdon from natural and moral death to immortality and
heaven.
But we find also another change in the usage of the words.
Fleah and blood have their limitations of sense, so that here we see
things imperfectly, and in detail only. Pure spirit sees them entire,
and aa if effected instantaneously. In this life we behold man by
man, individually, redeemed from ignorance, sin, and moral death by
fiiith, hope, love, and other Gospel agencien. But in that life the
anfajeets of salvation are embraced as a whole, and all secondiuy
agencies are reaulved into their causes, God, Christ, or the resurrec-
tion power — it is *' the creation " that is ^^ delivered from the bond-
age of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God **•—
and it is God, the Cause of all causes, or Jesus, ** the Author and
Finisher of our fiuth,*' that effects the salvation. It is ever thus in
divine levektion — and esneciall^^ in prophecy and promise of future
good— the near is bebela, individual by individual, and agency by
agency ; but the remote, as in a distant landscape, is seen en masse^
and the operations as one great result.
This is probably why the words 53vr, saved, salvation, &c., are very
seldom used in reference to the individual soul, when speaking of its
immortal destiny, i^rticular persons or classes are merged in the
mass. Nor are they used in ctmrection with human agency, as here,
hyt are referred to God or Jesus as the great Agent of agencies.
Our hoMMnly Father im spoken of as wiiUtig and effecting the salva-
lln of 4illAforauaodd(ealh-*aa«' the SvriouK of all man" — bat
AND ALMANAC FOB 1858. 19
the reference Is to Him, rather than to man ; to Him as the Savioar
of the rare, rather than to any particular individual or class thus
saved. In like manner Jesus, in reference to the result of his mission,
is 5poken of as ** the Saviour of sinners'* ** the Propitiation of th«
sins of the whole norld," '* the Redeemer of all to be testified in dut
time," and *^ the Saviour of the world " — and thus the salvation of
all souls is promiserl, but more with reference to the being who
works the salvation, than to any individual soul of the race saved by
htm.
And a*- other change in the usage of the word is requured whea
applied to the salvation in iromortaUty. Belief and unbelief periaui
not to that state, for there ** all shnll know the Lord from the leait
to the greatest;" so that all salvation wrought by faith pertaim !•
the mortal state.
The same is true of salvation efiectPd by hope ; for in the ifnmof^
tal state hcpe is to be swallowed up in fhiitkm. And the aame k
true of ever}' salvation from any oonoition or state pertaining only to
this life, or on this side of the resurrection to immortality. DeliT*
erance from moral or spiritual death, if it be not also a deliveranet
from natural death, must be in this life ; for after the resurrectioa
there is to be '* no more death,** no " sting of death, which is sin,"
and no more victory for the grave, (Hades,) or state of the dead.
The word fahatian, and its primitives retain their primitive
meaning of healing, or making whole, only in the highest ind most
perfect spiritual hcnse, when applied to the* imn.ortal state -^ aft
denoting a perfect deliverance from the ills and imperfections, not of
that life, but of this ; for th^re there can be no evils, no hnperfeo-
tions. As disease, danger, suffering, and death, exist not in immor-
tality, it cannot mean deliverance from them there. Nor from am
there, nor from death, nor hell (Hades) there; for immortafity
knows them not — they are among (he past in reference to the pur^y
• spiritual existence.
And the resurrection state is ther^ore the saved state, in whidl
those things from which we are saved have no longer any existence.
And those thtis saved by it, are the saved, not the persons yet to fe
saved ; even as they are the raised, not the persons yet to be raised j
or the immortalized, not those who are to become immortal.
Satration then, means — Ist, To heal or restore to soundness «nd
health the phyncal frame. 2d, To preserve or deliver fttim phy*-
ic-al peril, suffering or death. 3d, To heal or restore from moral
disease (sin,) or moral dcoth. And, 4th, To deliver from all the
imperfections and evils of this life, moral and physical, and from
death itself, by the resurrection to a purely spiritual and immortal
cxistente, where sin, sufferinu and death shall oe unknown forever-
more ; and where each soul shall be "^qual unto the angels of God in
heaven, and be the child of God in a more perfect sense, by being a
child of the Kesurrection. A. B. G.
20 UNIVERSALIST COMPANION,
ANECDOTES FOR THE SOCIAL CIRCLE.
L Rev. Menzies Rayner, vfho died in 1850, was equalled by
yery few men in his reteniire memory of S<TipTurc — words, book,
chapter and verse bein«r quoted with unfiulinc: accuracy — or in his
readiness and caustic wit in applying it for admonition and n»boke.
In a sermon before the Slate Convention at Cooperstown, N. Y.,
many years aeo, several revival preachers were among his hearers.
He proceeded to describe the arts of revivalists in getting up their
excitements, in contra^^t with the manly simplicity of the Apostles
and early Christians in nreaching the Gospel. Commenting on the
fiw5t that modem re^valists addressed the passions rather than the
understanding, and the passions, too, of those most susceptible to
their terrifyin^f appeals, he abruptly said — " But why describe
them? Let Pou/ rebuke their artful conduct for us — (reading 2d
Tim. iii : 6, 7,) * For of this sort are they which creep into houses,
Mid lead captive silly women laden with sins ; led awav with divers
lusts ; ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of
the truth M •* As the keen black eyes shone with piercing gaze over
the tops of his spectacles, there seemed to be some windng under
the effects of the shot. A. B. O.
n. Cappiko Verses. — On another occasion he arrived at a
■tage hotel, cold and wearied; and, while vraiting for the next
coach, was assailed by one of those boasters who ** can put down any
Universalist in five minufeg." He boasted greatly of his knowledge
of the Bible, and mbtaking Br. Kaj*ner*s forbearance for cowardice,
waxed valiant for a discussion. <' Well," said Br. Rayner, *< since «
^ you are so well acquainted with the Bible, suppose we pass the time
more pleasantly than in a discussion, by *• capping verses.' " The
gasconader did not understand the play. *'0h," said the venerable
man, ^*you quote the first portion of any verse, and leave me to,
quote the rest; and then 1 will quote part of another, and you will
complete it So, now begin." But our " able Scripturian " did not
know what passage to quote. He was told "any pa.<isage." But
after considemble thinking, in some perplexity, he requested Father
Bayner to begin. " Well," said the old gentleman, " I will give
you Proverbs, 26th chapter, and 12th verse — * Seest thou a man wise
ta his own conceit f * Now, do you finish the quotation." But the
btaggadoda di'l not seem to know there was such a passage, and so
Mtumed it to Mr. Rayner to complete it. Pointing his finger and
OOBoentzating the fire of his keen eye so -as to give sharpness to the
pointf he •• capped it" — »• There is more hope of a fool, than o/him."

when he •• came to himSf If," he could not tell where he was, nor in
what direction lay his appointed place. His watch told him that the
hour for the funeral was near at hand. He hastened to the nearest

Fortunately the boy's mother came to the Dr.'s reHef, and the

IV. Fidelity to Chktst. — A colored female member of an
African " church militant " in one of the Southern States, brought
no little scandal on her profession by stealing a goote to contribute
to some junketing. The charge was fully made outand established —
the feathered biped being clearly traced from the roost into her pos^
session. What was the astomshment of Dinah's mistress, a few
weeks afterward, on finding Dinah arra>-in^ herself in her " best bib

solemnity, for the purpose of partaking the sacmment with her colored
brethren and sisters. " Why, Dinah,^ said her astonished mistress,

VI,. The TraCIC Fabccd. — A minister was preaching to a
huge congregation in one of the Southern States, on the certainty of
a futm« judgment. In the gallery sat a cobrcd girl, with a white
child in her arms, which she was oancing up and down with com-
mendaUe efibrt, to make the baby obeenre the proprieties of the
place. The preacher was too mnch interested in his subject to notice
the oc«a8i(>nal noise of the in&nt ; and at the right point of hb dis-
•oursp, threw himself mto an interesting attitude, as though he had
suddenly heard the first note of the trump of doom, and loolung
towards that part of the church where the girl with the baby in her
aiBia was sittmg, he asked, in a bw, deep Toice —
•* What is that I bear V "
Before he recorered from ti»e ontorical pause, so as to answer his
own question, the colored girl responded, in a mortified tone of voice,
but 1 'Ud enough to catch the ears of the entire congregation —
" I don'bo^ sa, I spec^ it k & here cUle ; bet inde^ sa, I hoa
been doin' cdl I could to keep him from 'sturbin' you.'*
It is easy to imagine that this unexpected rejoinder took the tragio
out of the preacher in the shortest time imaginable ; an'l that the
solemnity of that judgment-day sermon was not a little diminished
by the event.
YIL "A False Alahm.'' — Another instance, equally confound-
ing to the minister, happened, we beliere, in Kichuiond, Va. A
kuge congregation bad assembled to hear a stranger of some noto-
riety. Soon after he had introduced his subject, the cry of ^ fire I
fire!" in the street rery much disturbed the congregation, and
many were abotit to retire, when an elderly brother rose and said —
^ If the congregatkm will be composed, I will step out and see if
there is any fire near, and report.*
The congregation became composed, and the mmister proceeded.
Ihking advantage of the occurrence, he caUed attention to a^re that

lake that is bottomless ; and just concluded a sentence of terriUe
import, and not without manifest impreMion on his audience, when a
voice from the other end of the church, as if in a flat denial of all
he had said, hiwled out —
"//•« a false dorm!''
The effect was ludicrous in the extreise. The old man had
returned ; but his inopportune response spoiled the force of the elo*
quent appeal from the pulpit, and even the preacher could scarce
refrain from joining in the universal smile that passed over the con-
gregation.
Vni. To Cleanse Thobouohly.^ — Several persons converanff
about a vicious man, one observed that " in early manhood he haS
been dipped and became a very respectable member of the BaptisI
church,** Another remarked that ^ his baptism had not cleansed
him much." »• No," said a little girl, very gravely, " he should have
been pui to soak over night ! "
IX. An Embarrassing RESPONSB-^Rev. Mr. S. was preach-
ing in one of the Methodist Episcopal churches in this dty, and there
was in attendance a goo4 old Methodist brother, very much given to
responses. Sometimes the responses were not exactly appropriatei
but they were always well meant. The preacher, usually lucid, was
rather perplexed, and felt it himself. He labored through his first
part, an'l then mu] :
** B*%thren, 1 have now reached the conclusion of my first part t *
'* Thank God!*' piously ejaculated the old man, who sat hefbre
faim, profoundly interested ; but the unexpected response, and the
suggestive power of it, so confused the preacher, that it was with
difficulty he could rally himself to a continuance of his discourse.-^

X. A Good Example.— We are remarkably pleased with the
following anecdote of Dr. Tyng, an eminent Episcopal clergyman in
the city of New York. Let some self-esteemed great men read it,
and learn a lesson of humility.
** Some yeftrs since, hearing of the celebrity of Dr. Tyng, I went
to hear him preach while he was occupying the chapel of the Uni-
versity. I took a seat with a fiiend by invitation. An aged female
soon entered, and being a stranger to the rules, paned down the
aisle, looking to the right and letl. But no one noticed the aged
woman, as 1 saw, but Dr. Tyng. She got quite up to the desk, and
with a look of deep humility, took her seat on a kind of step under
the desk. I noticed the look of the Doctor. It was stern, and
called a flush to my cheek and joy to my heart He anpeared to
consider awhile, then arose, gathered up his robes, ana with a&
expression I shall never forge^ descended the pulpit stairs, took the
arm of that poor, old, totterins; female, led her to his own pew, and
placed her beside his wife, and returned to 1u& ]jul]^vX«DL4\Kk^N3&KiC
24 UNIVER8AUST COMPANION,
XL Baal, or the Lord. — Father Barnes was the tinA preacher
of Universalism in Maine. He was a man of mild spirit, a winning
reesoner, quick at repftrtee, and a good man. JSome forty or forlj-
five year* ago he preach»*d in L<*wisron, Me. j and after services in
the evening, put U|> at the house of Dan Kead, Fm\, It was not long
before in came a Mr. Fogg, a Methodist Presiding Elder, who re-
sided in Monmouth.
" J 9 your name Barnen ? " says Fognr.
" That is my name,'' says Mr. Barnes.
" The Universalist preacher, 1 fupprse."
** I try to preach that doctrine sonieiiraes," said Mr. Barnes.
•* Well,*' said Fogg, '* I have heen about the world considerably,
and you are the oniy Universalist preacher I have tver seen. It
seems to me, if that doctrine was true, God would provide more
messengers."
•• How many messengers have the Methodists in their denomina-
tion ? " said Mr. Barnes.
'* In the United States, I think we have rising Jive Hundred,^ re-
plied Fogp.
" Ah ! *' sard Mr. Barnes, ** you outdo the prophets of Baal ; he
bad /bur hundred and fifty ^ and Elijah was. the only prophet of the
Lord amongst them.**
Elder Fogg turned and left the room.
XII. TiiK PROPF.R Liturgy. — A lady who was visiting a
friend in Norwalk, accompanied her to church, and commenced smsr-
ing the hymn which was given out, when the sexton stepped softly
to her and told her that in that church the choir did all the unging.
The lady afterwards remarked to her friend, that the Church had bet-
ter strike from her liturgy, — ** Let the people praise thee, O Lord; kt
all the people praise thee I "
XIIL Thb Bkst Use. — Rev. Z. Thompson, of Maine, says, in
77k« Start — •* Travelling lately upon the railroad, I chanced to &11
in company with a stranger, who, thougn a Western man, appeared
quite as much inclined to ask questions as if his habits had been
xormed in a land much nearer to sunrise. Ue first witched to know
If I * belonged about here.' and next, about the lumbering business
in my country ; then about the cause of temperance, which was
Suite liberally discussed, and then the suhject of hkvery was intro-
uced. As yet we had generally harmonized very well in our
opinions, and seemed to be gettmg quite near each other But
there was one other subject that must come up — the subject of
reliffion.
* Welly stranger,' said my loquacious friend, *I should like to ask
you one question more.' J
• Very well, sir,* said I, ' as many as you please.'
•Well, then,' said he, * please tell* mc what is your religious

' Ah/ said my associate, * I cannot agree with you on that point ;
and I should like to ask again, What do you think God will do with
sinners who ^o out ot this world in their sins ? '
*■ Well/ said I^ * my answer is this : I think God will make the best

ANECDOTES OF REV. SAVILLION W. FULLER
{Never he/ore Published.)
Br. Fuller, who died in Philadelphia, in 1839, in the meridian of
his hfe and his usefulness, commenced his ministry in Central New
York, in 1830, nnd wns settled as Pastor over the Churches in Boon«
ville and Loydi*n, N. Y., at a time when Revivalism ran m d. He
was eminently courteous and aflible in spirit and manner, tut stem
nnd severe towanl nharisaic professors who attempted to lord it over
tho^•e they termed " sinners '* and ** world's people." His prompt
and read^ wit on such occasions, always enabled him to ** beat them
with their own weapons/'
A SiiEFiiEKD KOT A SwisEiiEnD. — Entering the stacre-coach
for Utica, one day, he four.d it full of jiassengers, among whom was
a notorious •* vagrant revivalift " tnd his dvacon. Bi. Fuller soon
bec-ime disgusted with the coarse, trow beating dogmatism of the
revivalist toward ihe unnsfuming passengers, and took up tbe argu-
ment ajiainst him. Knmged at being foiled in controversy and
overmatched in wit, the Eider t oured out a torrent of abusive Wl-
lingsgate, when Br. F. arrested nis vulgar tirade by saying in a dig^
nified and auth<iri»ative tone — *• Slop, sir! Not another woni
from your lips! Why, sir, you are making a mere blackguard of
yourseR Not another worci, fir! (arresting the reply betbre it
could be commenced.] Not another word, ftell you! Why, yon
have alrendy dif^gracea yoursilf and your profession, and, if allowed
to continue, would disgiuce the company you are in, and the Tery
hordes that draw you along ! '' The mortified re%i%-alist shrunk into
his comer, cowed by an in.periousness as much excelling his own in
energ> and power, as it towered above him in dignity and truth.
But his deacon was determined not to be put down thus, and
rpoke np with much spirit — ♦» Sir, this is a free country, and
others have a right to si^cak as well as yoortelf.'* '* Most certainly,
my dear sir," haid Br. Fuller with one of ins beaming kwks and m
his blandest tones — "most certainly, sir; and I hope you will
exercise your ripht." •* Yes, sir; and I mean to exercise it, sir; Pll
let yt'U know, Mr, that I shall speak as much as I ])Iea8e, sir," said
ihe now enraged deacon. *• That's right," replied the very cour-
teous Fuller — »* speak on, my dear sir; we wish to hear you
apeak." «* Yes, sir," continued the cnoning deacon^ "Midl^VVsX.
26 UNIVERSAUST COMPANION,
Stu know that you can't shut my mouth sip." "Oh, no » air —
eaven forbid that I shnuUl artempt ir— 1 wnnt jfou to Bpeak —
80, speak on, sir — we tike to h«'ar you." " Yes, sir, and I won't
ask your permission, neither I VW let von know, sir, that yrni are
not niy keefK'r, sir!** baid tlic deacon, now almost bunitin;; with
ra^e. •• Certainly nor. sir," wjis the very quiet but smilinj; reply —
" certainly not, sir — I am a Pastor, nit a keeper Oi' mnne.** A
prolonged, hearty laiir;h from the passengers finally dieil away, and
** there was a great calm." The de»con reclined in sullen silence
in his comer, and the remainder of the journey was enliTened by
pleasant and profitable conversation between Br. Fuller and the
other passengers.
Stop that Groaning. — He made an appointment to preJicb
in a snuill village rear Leyden, on the last evening of the year, in
the only place there for holding public meetings. The Methodists,
to prevent the fulfilment of his appointment, appointed tlieii
** watch meeting " in the same place, j'he evening en me, and both
parties assembled. Br. Fuller, at an early hour, seated himself at
the centre of the spetiker^s stand, and as the three or four Method-
ist clergy 1 1 en entered, graciout^ly invited them to be seated at his
right and his lefL 1'hey looked very sour at this arsumption, and
iniormed him that it' wav their meeting, and that the hall was theirs
by previous apjiointment. Very plearantly he informed them of
their mistitke — that his appointment was first made, and that be
and his friends had rightful |)OM)ession of the desk and seata.
•* However," added he, *♦ the matter can easily be settled. The
evening is long enough for both tneelings. Yours being a watch-
meeting must be held lusty of courtie! Mine will occupy only
about two hours, after which you can hold vours as k>ng as you
please." They perceived that ihev were caught in their own snare,
and that it was useless to appoaf to the audience, for a majority
evidently &vored Br. Fuller's reasonable proposition ; and equally
useless would it be to attempt withdrawing their people, for the
room and passages were a perfect jam, and to withdraw would be
to give up tne *' watch* meeting." So, with sullen protests, they sub-
mitted to the necessity, and Kr. Fuller commenced his aervices.
When invited to assist, they gloomily declined, and he proceeded
alone.
The sermon was strongly doctrinal from the text to the amen,
and full of clear, hgical reasoning and explicit Scripture proofs
from prcmisea to conclusions. As be quoted passage after passage
of Sacred Writ, the preachers on each side sighed and groaned
aloud in anguish ot heart and vexation of spirit. This proceeded
for a short time, till the groans and exclamations became annoying
to speaker and audience, when Br. F. with much kindi.ess of voice
and manner, turned first to one, then to another, with the question,
" Brother, are you sick ? " lieceiving onl^ negative head-shakea
in reply, be proceeded again, and was again met with groans and
grunts of dissatisfiu^tion. More earnestly, but still kindly and cour-
AUD almanac for 185«. 27
teondy, he dcnuuidecl — " What is the matter, brethren ? " Groan-
ing deprecationt of the doctrine were uttered in reply.
^ Now, hear me, brethren,', mid the earnest Evangelist. '* Yon
profess to b^ Christivis, and to |)os8eBS the rpirit of oar compas*
aonate Master. And you hold frequent meetings, and travel far
and neir, and preach and pray day and niifht, with grainings and
•ighings, to soot nnners. lou wrestle and agonize with God in
prayers, beseeching him, with many cries and tears, to $ave winnerit-^
tobrinf^d/? sinners to the knowledge of his truth and. the enjoy-
ment of i: is saving grace. And yet when I prove, by irrefatable
reaeooing and the clear testimony of God, and ot liis Son, and of
His prophets and apostles, that our heavenly Father and our
blessed Saviour will save sinners — will deliver the whole intelligent
armiion * from the bondage of corruption into the glorious libertj
of the children of God/ you groan as if 1 proclaimed some tern-
bie calamity I Now, brethren, either your groaning at the^e divinely
iojroas tidings, or your pra^-ers ior the salvation of sinners must be
hypocritical. If you are sincere in your labors and prayers for the
talvatiun of the world, you will rejoice at the blessed promises of
God — ihatead of thai, you g-r-o-a-n at ew^ry promise of universal
nlvackm I quote. Lfet us have no more such inconsistency, but
ftjoiee with tis at the glad tidings full of joy, and ttop that groan^
VHfil"
He tamed again to the audience, and long and strong as was hit
leniioii, no groanings or other expressions of sorrow and anguish
were again lieard. The benediciion pronounced, and the greater
portion of that crowded >et attentive audience departed in peace
and joy to their homes and their repose.
CoLLAFSB OF Selp-£8trkm. — Attending, one evening, a pro-
tracted meeting in Utica, at the clobc of the preaching; services Br.
Paller engaged in conversation with one of the preachers. One of
the revivalists came along, dragging a lad by force toward the ses-
tioo roQOiy where an ^ Inquiry meeting *' was to be held. Br F«
lud his hand heavily on the ruvivalist^s shoulder, and asked, " What
ire JOQ doing with that boy i^ '* [ am taking him to the ' Inquiry
laeeting."* "Well, can't he walk there of himself ? Mutt yoa
dms people there by force ? Let the boy go ! " The boy ran, at
finr liMb ** What I" said the over-zealous pioselyter, sweHinz up in
ttMelj self-importance, <* you sinful wretch, have you come here to
pieveot me from saving souls ? " ** You save souls ! " said Br. F.,
eyeing the roan slowly from head to feet, with a withering smile,
" Km aave souU ! Wny, you insignificant fellow, you could n't save
t tUUoi!^ The poor fellow collapse ^ and vanished tii/r/an/er.
L Who ABE Satan's Emissaries ?--> Immediately after the
E ibove CTentyOne of the clergymen invited him to the *< Inquiry

K^' Me pray^ there. The promise was given. On entering the room,
^ ttty stopped and conversed awhile at the door. As it was growing
28 UNIVERSALIST COMPANION,
late, Br. F. reminded his introducer of his promise, ifvbo thereapon
piot'eeded to the further end of the room, nvhere the ministers were
seated in a row. As he ppokc to each in turn, they drew up their
forms and scowlen in «*orn at the mere idea proposed. Findmjr his
plea BO unfavorably received, the revivalist <lrop(»ed on his knifes,
and commenced ])rayinjr lor and at Br. Fulicr, and against line —
" O Lonl, come right down and convert this proud and witked
Universalist — thii» lying p'eaclier and prophcsier of smooth things —
who has come into our milst to hinder thy work."" Br. Fuller, who
had meanwhile pressed forward, here interrupted the prayer by a
stern — *• Stop, sir ! It is bat! enough to lie to me, by breaking your
sole on promise ; don*t add to your wickedness by lying to God.
Look at me, sir! What is there about me to authorize you to rail
me proud?" (His dress was very plairi and travel-worn.) ''You
never saw me be lore tanijrht — what have I done that you should
tell God 1 am wicked ? When did you, hear me prophesy deceit-
fully ? Are you not ashp.med, sir, thus to lie to God, who knows us
both, and especially your broken promise to meV The other
5 rear hers raised a clamor to shield the culprit, repeatedly calling
ir. Fuller ** an emissary of S:ttan." Turning on them wr»h great
dignity, and raising his earnest voice so as to secure a heariog^he
replied — »» An emia<«ary of Satan ! Th's from you J I an emissary
of 8atan — when I preach the limitation of his power, while yuM
proclaim its almost omnipotence! /an emissary of Satan — who
proclaim the downfall of his kingdom and the delivery of liis cap-
tives, while 1/ou assert the perpetuity of his reign over myriads of
God*s own children 1 / an emissary of Satan — who decUre, and
prove by Holy Writ, the uiter destruction of the Devil and all his
works, while you contend for his endless existence in triumph over
a great portion of Christ's heritage! I an emissary ot Jiatan —
when I e:>chew his lies, and refuse to do his works, while you {turn-
ing to his introducer) break your promise, bear false witness against
your brother, and lie to God ; and you {turning to the others) join
hands with his wickedness, and bolster him uo in his falsehoods ;
I tell you l)efore God, your own consciences also bearing me wit-
ness, that ye have proved yourselves to be the emissaries of Satan !
and as I find this to be the l^yna^ogue of Satan himself, 1 will no
longer disgrace myself and the blessed Gospel 1 preach, by remain-
ing in your company. Good ni^ht ! " And before the astounded
conclave could recover from their confusion, he was gone, leavinigr
them^ in no very placid spirit to conclude their meeting for the
evening. The next evening, notice was given that they did not want

• liere is the commencement of a system of means, which, if our
General Convention will but apply all its powers and energies to
carry it out, will at once place our denomination in the very front
rank of all Christian sects in the land. We are more than pleased
— we are proud of these two volumes and the end they aim to ac-
complish. Not only should every family, but every member of our
families able to use the Liturgy, po88e<*s and use a copy thereof ;
and every i^olated family, or cluster of families, or destitute Socie-
ty, should procure a copy of the Sermons, and meet together on
each returning Sabbath, and read and hear the Sermon for the
day, and worship together in the use of the Liturgy. In a hhort
time they will become accustomed to use these " religious helps,"
and in the use become aittached to them, and find them eminently
profitable in promoting a growth in grace and in the knowledge of
God and heavenly things. But to ensure this general use of these
works, our General and State Conventions must bend their contin-
uous and earnest efforts to establish a Boanl of Publication, appoint
Agents who will establish worshipping circles and instruct them in
the easy use of the Liturgy ; and secure a steady supply of means
to carry onward the work thus commenced to results which shall
fill our land every where with famdies, congregations and societies
of living warshipjting Universalists. It will be a burning shame to
ourdenomination, if withsu.h a Liturgy, andsuch a commencement
for supplying a sermon for every Sabbath, wu do no more thaa
merely taik, and resohe to use the one and continue the other.-

And here is another Yolume to aid in the foregoing work of
making onr denomination — all the families and members thereof —
what it should be — intelligent as well as worshipful Christians. —
There nerer has issued from our press so full a volume of religious
instruction as this. All that is good in the best and latest commen-
taries of other denominations calculated to shed light on and bring
light out of this master Epistle of Paul will be hero found embodi-
ed— carefully condensed, clearly explained, and happily arranged.
Every Universalist family should not only posesss and read, but
carefully study and treasure up the rich stores contained in this and
the preceding three volumes of our denominational Commentary.

5. " The Pastor's Bequest. Selections from the Sermons of
Rev. Henry Bacon. Edited by Mrs. E. A. Bacon." Boston :

Br. Bacon was an indefatigable and efficient worker with pen
and voice, and a very popular preacher and writer, whose influence
throngh the press and in the pulpit was very beneficient to the
cause m which he was engaged. The life of sach a man written by
the pen of one who loved him well and truly — and by a pen, too,
wielded with a gentle, easy power in no wise inferior to bis own,
must be interesting. Such is the volume before us. Its companion
the Bequest, contains 85 Sermons, such as their author in his last
illness, most desired to leave as a parting legacy to his friends, hit
congregations, and the world. From one so popular as a preacher,
these chosen disconrses bring no common recommendation, to entitle
them to a very general circulation in our denomination. By them
'< he, being dead, yet Fpeaketh."

This monthly has much improved in ita general contents during
the past year. The worthy aml-able women who have charge of
it, (Mrs. Bacon, Munroe, and Soule,) have put iiicreascHl life and
spirit inio its pages, and rendered it more than ever worthy the sup-

THE UNIVERSAUST QUARTERLY.
Our intelligent lay brethren know not the interest and value of
this work, or more would certainly send their two dollars per an-
num to secure its quarterly visits to themselves and families. The
instructive and valuahle essays it contains will bf ar frequent perus-
als: and when bound up will form volumes by no means the least
important and interesting in their libraries. Every father of a family
who can affonl it, should at once subscribe for it, and so secure it*
aid in informing his own mind, and in making his children intelli-
gent Univcrsalist Christians. A. B. G.
TAKE THE PAPERS.
Every Universalist family should lake (and pay for) at least one
UnivCTSalist periodical — the newspaper published in their own State
or that nearest to them, or in which they find the most interesting
denominational news. If they can affoid to take more than one,
the female members should tiike the Repository. If more still, the
Quarterly, or some other may profitably be added. And if there
are children in the family, do not fail to procure the Young Chris-
tian, the Myrtle, or Youth's Friend, for ihem. A. B. G

The 27th volume cf this interesting and instructive Monthly, com-

at $2 per year, in advance. All subscribers must commence in July.
The following is an extract of a letter Arom a worthy clergyman, in
reference to this Magazine : —
**I consider the 'Repository' eminently worthy of patronage. I
thought much of it before the death of Br. Bacon— I think moreluf it
now — not that I look upon its contents as bemg any better, but because
it is editad by womem. This is as it should be. I say to tee Universal-
ist women of my acquaintance, thnt the * Repository * is your publica-
tion. The hand of woman is employed in its editorial supervision — the
mind and heart of woman enrich its pages, and you are therefore in
duty bound to give it your cordial sympathy and your unflagging sap^
port. I would that our women might oe pereuBded to interest them-
selves more extensively in the effort to increase the circulation and use-
ftilness of the only Literary and Religious Monthly ^^ our denomina-
tion. It pains me to meet with the * Bepantory * so seldom in profeased
Universaust families. Indeed I am haraly willing to acknowledge that
woman a Universalist, upon whose tabic I find ' Oodey,* ' Graham/
' Harper,* * Putnam,' &c., but no * Ladies Repository.'

"INSURANCE OFFICK"
UmTcnalist Churdies haye been derisively called "Insurance
Offices againiit Hell-fire," by scoffing opposers. There is more tnOk
than ieve or poetry in the deflignation ; for the doctrine there
preached does so m toward insuring it« sincere believers against
the torments of that hell which sin knidles in the soul, and conse-
qpently against those hells which human iuHtice builds (for trans-
gicsacna of the laws of the land — as the following facts will show :
1. The records of the " Rosina Association," of Philadelphia, for
tiie refinmation of abandoned, females, were examined a few years
•go, and out of several hundreds of cases, only one designated her-
■uf as a Umversalist — and she, on being questioned by the Matron,
proyed to be very ignorant concerning the doctrine — all the rest
were Catholics, \fethodi8ts, Prcsbj'terians, &c, &C
2. An official report of the prison in Toronto, C. W., gives as the
rali^tont of its criminals in 1857, — 918 Roman Catholics, 76o Epis-
eopslians, 152 Presb>terians, 64 Methodists, 3 Baptists, and 8 No-
thingariana — not one Universalist out of the entire number, 1910.
8. The 27th annual Report of the Eastern Penitentiary of Penn-
sylyania, (March 1856,) tnus classifies the convicts — 1 10 Method-
ttts, 90 Roman Catholics, 65 German Lutherans, 50 Presb}i»rians,
SI Episcopalians, 14 German Reformed, 12 Baptists, 6 Friends, 4
Christ-ians, 2 ea!ieh Disciples, French Protestant, Duteh Reformed,
and United Brethren, ana one each Menonists, lianters, Israelites,
and one Universalist.
4. The State Prisons of New-York have been examined at vari-
oat times to ascertain the religious opinions and connexions of the
eonyicts, and out of some 1200 to 1600 at each examination not one
Umversalisi was found among them. We have known one lay Uni-
ycnalist sent to the Prison at Auburn, and one who had 6een a
dogyman among us, I was informed, had been imprisoned there —
and this during two residences of 20 years in that State, during
which I was extensively acquainted with the denomination in Cen-
tral and Western New-Vork. Some years ago Br. J. M. Austin, of
Anbum, was informed that a Methodist clergyman had asserted
that there were, then, five Universalist clergymen in that prison.
Letter in hand, he immediately called on the Kev. Mr. Morrill, (the

stance, took place : " Mr. Morrill, I hold a letter stating that there
are five Universalist clergymen confined here. Are there five of
that class in your walls?" " No sir." "Are there three ? " "No."
" Is there one ? " " There is not" " Do you know of one prisoner
who professes Universalism P" " I have found none." " Are there
any MethodisU» here ? " " Yes." " Any clergymen of that denom-
nation ?" " Yes, several." " How many ?" '" There are (hesitat-
ng as if counting) five here now, I believe."
LasUy — for we must end somewhere '—the State Prison in
Michigan has been examined several times for the same object, and
while nearly all, if not all^ the prisoners were found sound believers
of the " salutary " doctrine of endless sin and woe, not one Univer-
salist was, at any time, to be found among them.
When the great number of Universalists (in New York especially)
is considered — and the excessive proportion of " orthodox" prison-
ers is noted — we can see readily that Universalism is, indeed, a
strong insurance against vice and immorality — against crime, their
general consequence, and the penitentiary, its almost invariable
result. A. B, G.
INTERESTING FACTS.
1. " The Gospel Liturgy" was prepared by Br. A. C. Thomas,
under direction of the United States Convention, that, in connexion
with the " Gospel Sermons," (published and to be published every
six months, so as to furnish new sermons, for each Sunday,) families
and congregations who have no preacher, mav themselves conduct
serviceii, and so have religious worship and instruction every Sun-
day. We arc pleased to learn that 8000 copies of Uie " Liturgy "
were sold within the first year, and that the sales continue brisk —
over 9000 copies in all having been disposed of. Br. Ilenry Lyon,
" Ambassador Office," New-York city, is the present publisher of
the "Liturgy."
2. The Gallows. — It is not true that the gallows has been re-
stored in Wisconsin. All attempts thus to retrograde in that State
and Michigan, have failed thus far. Intelligent people readily per-
ceive that the less public or legal killing, the fewer murders. Nei-
ther Rhode Island, Michisan nor Wisconsin legalise the sallows ;
and late statements say that Louisiana has also abolished it In
Maine it is virtually done away ; and Massachusetts by a late law
virtually leaves it to the jury to say whether the murderer shall be
hung, or imprisoned for hfe.
3. Cost of the Clergy. — Those who think it a great burden
to " support a preacher," may possibly gather a hint of a greater
burden from the following :
It is estimated that ardent spirits cost the people of the United
States $200,000,000; Dogs, $HO,000,(M)0 ; Lawyers, $70,000,000;
Criminals, $64,000,000; and the Clergy, $12,000.,000, Which of
these *' luxuries " is the most useful^ A. B. G.
AND ALMANAC FOR 1859. 19
W9AT IS UNIVER8ALTSM?
In faUk, it is a firm belief in One God as the Father of all, in
character as well as name; in the Bible as the record of His will
ind purpose ; in Christ as the Saviour of all from sin and death ;
and m Heaven as the final, immortal, holy and happy Home for all.
In practice, it is tht worship and service of Ooa as His children ;
conducting toward mankind as His iamilv, according to His pre-
cepts revealed in the Scriptures ; copying the spirit and example of
Cnrist, who is the ** brightness of Oo<rs glory and the express imaj^
of His nerson '* ; and hving on earth as citizens and destined heirs
of that nome above.
And the great and all-including law or rule by which this faith
ii to be governed, and tins practice to be guided, is comprehended
in one word — Charity or Love — Love to Ood supremely, and to
mankind universally — " Thou shalt love thy ncighoor as thyself."
Whosoever believes this, should also openly profess it — and
ifhotoever pro f esses this, should also humbly strive to live it. " Let
him that readeth understand/' and each apply it to his own case !
A. B. O.
CHIPS AND SPLINTERS.
A friend of mine who occasionally " makes a note" of " curiosities
of literatore,'* has sent us the following items under the above head-
ing. A. B. 0.
L In the works of John Tavlor, called "the Water Poet," there
oeotrs the subjoined piece oi laborious ingenuity, upon which he
greatly prided himself :
" LEWD DID I LIVE & EVIL I DID DWEL."
"This line, (said he,) is the same backward as it is forward, and
I will give any man five shillings a-piece for as many as he can
Bake." He might safely have offered a much larger price. Yet
the line is imperfect : the last word needs another L.
The only perfect line of the kind of which I have remembrance,
it the aUeged saying of a man who left a comfortable home and
''went to the wars." On his return, this was his backward-and-
fimmd declaration :
-SNUG & RAW WAS I ERE I SAW WAR & GUNS."
n. A man who either knew nothing of married life, or had had
a most unhappy experience in that Ime, summed up his judgment
iatfais enigma:
«EE XX MARRLAGE ee XX."
If it was the same man who preserves the memory of the follow-
ng section of an <' Ancient Catechism," he might have been more
pmtably employed.

i name painted on the stem, remarking — " Mr. Shelley was not
ended ; ne only laughed { for you see ne did not believe in the

deriU and so he thought there could be nothing wrong. " — Ltfe of
VL The foregoing, illustrating^ how sacredly superstitious people
rmzd a belief in tne devil, bnngs to mind h similar instance on
thu aide of the Atlantic Two persons were conversing in relation
to their ne^hbors, A. and B. — the former a reputed Atheist, die
latter a Umversalist They were warm in their commendations on
thi^ respective friends, when onesaid — What ! A. * a good man ! '
** Whv, he don't believe in God !" " Well," replied the other, with
eoualfy sincere contempt and horror marked on every feature, and
addressed in cver\' tone — ** Well, there's your Mr. B. ; he don't 6e-

VIL Spicy. The following correspondence is said to have pass-
ed between two clergymen m Sprir^eld, Mass., during the late
revival :
Baptist to Methodist Clergyman*
Dear Brother — I shall baptize some converts tomorrow; if any
of your converts prefer to be baptized in our mode, I shall be hap-
py tor baptise them as candidate^ for your church.
Methodist to Baptist Clerifyman.
Dear Bro. — Yours received. 1 prefer to wash my own sheep.
Vm. CoifVEBTED Univkrralist. — " I wish to hear nothing
further on that subject, Mr. Rogers ; vou know that our Philip
waa a UniversaltKt before God opened his eyes ; and what did your
doctrine do for .t/w^"
•• 1 know your Philip was a Universal! st ! Upon my word, I
know no such thing ; for as long as I have preached in the neigh-
borhood, I have never seen him at m v meeting : I have never
heard of his even professing anything of the kino. In what form
did hiir Universalism manifest itself? "
** Well, here he is, he can answer for himself. Philip, were you
not going straight on the road to heU^ in perfect unconcern, until
Ood showed you that your Universalism w^ a refuge of lies ? **
" Nay,'* remonstrated I, " let us not shape answers for the boy,
bv putting leading questions to him. I simply require to know,
F^imip, in what way your being a Universaliat was made known ?
IHd you, for instance, ever profess to believe, or did you ever be-
lieve tn Jact, that God will ultimately bring all mankind into a
condition of purity and bliss P "
" No ; " said the boy, doggedlv ; " I was 'nt such a fool as that
comes to ; for I read in my Bible that ' he that believeth not,
where Ood and Christ is, he can never come.' "
" Enough said," replied I, " your friends should be more tender
of your reputation for veracity, Philip, or of their own, than to re-
port you as a convert from Vnhersafism.*' — liogers^ Mfmoranda,
ae UNIVERSALIST CX)MPANION,
IX. A GOOD HIT. — " Pftreon Deane, of Portland, wv a preeise
man, and always appeared in the cUrical ragalia of die times, with
powdered wig, cocKed-hat, pown, and bands. Parson Hem hamj
went about with iust such clothes as he happened to find CL^nTcm-
ent, without the least regard to the conventional order.
Being together on a council, Dr. Deane playfully remarked : —
' The ferryman, brother Hemenway, as wo came over, had 'nt the
least idea vou were a dergjrman. Now I am particular always to
appear wit'k my wig on.'
' Precisely,' said Dr. Hemenway, ' I know it ii well to bestow
more abundant honor on the part that lacketh.' "
X. Force of Prejudice. — When the Universalists first start-
ed their preachings at Newburyport, they found, as in many other
instances in New-England, plenty of opposition from the bigoted
ones. They, however, grew apace, in spite of their enemies, and
soon had a meeting-house erected, with the figure of an angel
blowing the trumpet, for a vane. An old lady, a devout Presbyte-
rian, who had ever looked with horror on all movements of the
new sect, as soon as she espied the vane upon the ^pire of the new
church, exclaimed, " Wall, if that 'ere arn't jest like 'em ; they're
are a d^eadfUl set Only look. They've got a man on top o* their
steeple drinking out of a bottle ! It's jest like 'em." — BomU Pott.
XI. Clerical Vajjitt Rebuked. — ** Father Ballou ** had no
patience with clerical upstarts, and delighted in taking the starch
out of them when opportunity offered. " Wliat did you think of
my sermon ? " said a young minister to the old man on a certain
occasion, evidently fishing tor a compliment " O," replied Mr. B.,
** it had one exceUent point." '* Wlmt was that ? " incjuired the al-
ready elated young preacher. "It was the text!*' mildly replied
Mr. B. On another occasion several young ministers were boasting
of the rapidity with which they could write sermons. The first
could write two a week, the second could write one in a da}\ but
the third, quite a young man, did not want but four hours. Mr.
Ballou was sitting by, apparently busily engaged in looking over a
newly published oook. "How long does it take you to write a
sermon, father Ballou f." said the last sjieaker, fainiliarly slapping
him on the shouldef . " About a fortmght," was the reply, *' to
write one fit to be preaehecL**
XXL Sound vt. Sense — A celebrated divine, who was remark-
able in the first period of his ministr}*, for a boisterous mode of
preaching, suddenly adopted a mild and dispassionate style. One
of his brethren inquired what induced him to make a change. He
was answered, " When I was young I thought it was the thunder
that killed people ; but when I grew wiser, I discovered it was the
lightning; so I determined to thunder less, and lighten more."

CmiVERSALIST COMPANION.
"INSURANCE OFFICE."
Univenaliftt Churches have been derisively called "Insurance
OIBees against Hell-fire/' by scoffing opposers. There is more tmih
than lave or poetry in the designation ; for the doctrine there
preadied does go nr toward insuring its sincere believers against
the torments of that hell which sin kindles in the soul, and conse-
quently against those hells which human iuntice bmlds (for trans-
gresiori <x the laws of the land — as the following facts will show :
1. The records of the " Rosina Association," of Philadelphia, for
the leformalipn of abandoned, females, were examined a few years
•go, and out of se\'eral hundreds of cases, only one designated her-
adf as a Umversalist — and she, on being questioned by the Matron^
proved to be veryngnorant concerning the doctrine — aU the rest
were Catholics, Methodists, Presbyterians, &c, &c
2. An official report of the prison in Toronto, C. W., gives as the
rdigiont of its.criminals in 1857, — 918 Roman Catholics, 765 Epis-
copalians, 152 Presbyterians, 64 Methodists, 3 Baptists, and 8 No-
thingarians— not one Universaliet out of the entire number, 1910.
3. The 27th annual Report of the Eastern Penitentiary of Penn-
sylvania, (March 1856,) tnus classifies the convicts — 1 10 Method-
ists, 90 Roman Catholics, 65 German Lutherans, 50 Presbyterians,
21 Episcopalians, 14 German Reformed, 12 Baptists, 6 Friends, 4
Christ-ians, 2 each Disdples, French Protestant, Dutch Reformed,
and United Brethren, ana one each Menonists, Ranters, Israelites,
and one Umverealist,
4. The State Prisons of New-York have been examined at vari-
ous times to ascertain the religious opinions and connexions of the
convicts, and oat of some 1200 to 1600 at each examination not one
UmvermUui was found among them. We have known one lay Uni-
TersaUst sent to the Prison at Auburn, and (me who had been a
clergyman among us, I was informed, had been imprisoned there —
and this during two residences of 20 years in that State, during
which I was extensively acquainted with the denomination in Cen-
tral and Western New-York. Some years ago Br. J. M. Austin, of
Auburn, was informed that a Methodist clergyman had asserted
that there were, then, five Univcrsalist clersymen in that prison.
Letter in hand, he immediately called on the Rev. Mr. MorriU, (the
Cliaplaiii, and " arthodox,") when the following dialogue, in sub-

42 UNIVERSALIS! COMPANION,
WiTHDKAWALS. — Rcv. J. DouglasB, Potsdam, sent his resigna-
tion lo the Black Kiver Association, intimating that he left the min-
istry to prosecute his accusers in the ciTil courts. The Black Kiv-
er Association refused to accept it, as Mr. Douglass now resides in
the St. Lawrence Association, where the charges should he tried.
Ker. ]). L. Oshurn, Speedsrille, being afflicted with bronchitis,
has resigned hi^ letter of fellowship to engage in other pm-suits.
Kc'v. Porter Thomas, New-York, resigned, to enter the Episco-
pal ministry. He was a convert from the Catholics.
Br. Shubael Gibbs is omitted at his own request, beinir engaged
in other pursuits. We have omitted others who have ceased to
preach.
Br. J. Wallace should never have been omitted ; nor, probably,
Br. R. O. Williams.
Deaths. — Kev. Samuel C. Lovcland, foimcrly of Vermont, died
in So. Harford, April 8th, 1858, aged 70 years. His parents were
poor, and he was obliged to educate himself under ^eat' difficul-
ties incident to a new interior region ; yet he became a distin-
guished linguist, and read Latin, Greek and Hebrew, Syriac, Chal-
daic, Arabic, Anglo-Saxon, French, Spanish, German, Danish, and
modem Greek. His integrity and general intelligence also ele-
vated him to political stations as Representative, Senator, Judge,
and Lieutenant Governor, in his native State. He received fellow-
ship in 1B12, and was ordained in 1814. He usuall^jr walked to
his appointments, even to a late period of life — ^frequently travei-
lijig on foot 40 miles on Saturday to preach on Sunday, and re-
turning the same way on Monday. He was for several years Editor
of the '* Christian Repository." His disease was paralysis, under
which he lingered many months, and finally departed full of faith
and years, universally esteemed for his domestic, social and moral
worth, as well as for his great learning and ability.
Rev. Oliver Ackley, departed this life, June 30, 1858, at his res-
idence in Orleans, Ontario Co., in the 70th year of his age. He
was bom in Connecticut, in January, 1789, and at an early day
went with his father to New- York, then a new country, without
regular schools, &c. But by his own exertions he obtamed suffic-
ient education to teach a school, and early in life sustained a char-
acter which secured his election to several civil and military offices.
He served in militajy office at Sacketfs Harbor, in 1814. He
early took a deep interest in the preaching of Father Stacy, and
united with the church in Hamilton, and became a speaker in its
meetipgs. He was fellowshipped and ordained in 1821, (Begiater
of 1836, but Father Stacy says about 1819), and since then contin-
ued to itinerate and preach until increasing years and infirmitiM
required more repose. He was characteriied by great uprightnees
and amiability, and was emphatically a good man and a ndthftll
' ' ter of the Gospel of Jesus — and as such he fought the good
mad ftoifhed his course with joy and peace.

66 UNIVERSALIST COMPANION,
GENERAL SUMMARY.
Universalism in more or less of an organized form is now known
in thirty-two States and Territories of the United States, and in
four British Provinces on our North and East, as follows : —
In the United States, the General Convention is our supreme
head. It is composed of lay and clerical delceates, from the State
Conventions. Beside it, there is a Historical Society, owning n
increasing Library of manv rare and valuable works ; and a Oen-
etsl Reform Association, devoted to advancing the various Re-
forms.of the day. These are all of a national character.
In nineteen State and Territories ^^te Conventions exist, with
which are connected four Educational, nine Missionary, one Tract,
and four Sunday School Associations, and one Relief Fund, and
one Book and Paper Establishment. All these are of a State
character.
Subordinate to these, and embracing one or more counties, arc
eighty-three Ecclesiastical Associations, constituted of delegates
from the Churches and Societies, and of the ministers, within their
bounds ; and connected with some of these, are four Missionary,
and probably some other Associations.
Subordinate, again, to these last, are 1,122 Churches and Socie-
ties, (not including churches organized within Societies,) owning
905 Meeting-houses (including union and free Churches of which
they are part owners,) and 648 Preachers — including those not
fellowshipped in usual or public form.
The EducaiUmal Institutions owned and controlled wholly or in
part by Universalists, are : 1 University, (besides another in pro-
gress,) 2 Colleges, 6 High Schools and Academies, 18 Periodicals,
and 5 new volumes of Books published since our last issue — be-
side reprints of former publications, and pamphlets, tracts, &c
In the British Provinces there are 1 Association, about 15 Socie-
ties, and 8 Meeting-houses, and 7 Preachers, mtdung in all, a
Grand Total of 1 General Convention, 1 Historical Society,
and 1 General Reform Association ; 19 State Conventions, and 20
other State organizations for religious purposes ; 85 Associations,
and 4 Associational organizations for special denominational ob-
jects; 1334 Churches or Societies of believers, 913 houses of wor-
ship, 655 Preachers, 18 Periodicals, and 9 Institutions of learning.
THANKS.r-Our grateful acknowledgments are hereby tendered to
our Editors generally, and to Brs. G. W. Lawrence, A Peck, C.W.
Knickerbacker, D. Tenney, W. S. Bacon, W. Queal, T. Abbott, J.

UNTVEESALIST COMPANION, fl7
Pruxe your Lists. — We are satisfied that our numbers of So-
cieties and meeting-houses are stated at two high a figure in sev-
eral of the States. Some have been cut down to the reality by one
or two of our correspondents. May we not request of all who
know the facts, to do the same ? Our desire is to make the Regis-
ter as correct and reliable as sueh a work can be made. We there-
fore 8- lidc corrections and statistics from all who can furnish them,
for our next issue. Let them, if possible, reach us early in June,
1859, if not sooner.
Facts, corrections, and lists of Societies and of meeting-houses,
always form interesting items for our periodicals, and will reach
as as well in that way as in any other. A. B. G.
DISCUSSIONS.
The awakening of religious feelings, whick has so generally per-
vaded the whole community during the past ^ear or two, has ex-
cited many minds to inquiry concerniug religious doctrine also.
The result has been such an increase in the number of discussions
between us and our opposers, that we have been led to make out
a list of such as have been noticed in our papers. We give the
names of oui preachers, first, for convenience, naming the sect of
the opposer only, (in all cases where known ;) and in giving the
dates, we give that of commencement and closing days incUisive,
We arrange according to occurrence, including an noticed up to
the present month, July, 1858.

UNIVERSALIST COMPANION.
SALVATION— ITS AGENCIES.
[In the Companion for 1858, we gave a brief essay, ('< Saltaiion
— iU meaning t^*) showing that the New Testament writers, l^
their use of the words, «ave, saved, salvationf <ftc., meant — Ist,
To heal or restore to soundness the physical frame. 2d, To pre-
serve or deHver from physical peril, suffering or death. 3d, To
heal or restore from moral disease (sin) or moral death. And,
4th, To deliver from all the imperfections and evils of this life,
moral and physical, and from death itself, by the resurrection to a
purely spiritual and immortal existence." Illness and other dis-
couragements led us to drop the subject last Spring. But the re-
mt of a fellow-laborer, at missing the usual editorial essay in our
hist issue, has induced us to resume it and continue the aesigned
series. We therefore proceed to consider the agencies of salvation,
and, at some future time we shall consider the conditions of acUva-
UonJ]
** My Father worketh hitherto and I work," said our divine
Teacher, on a certain occasion. Did he mean that he and his Fa-
ther wrought at different and differing works P By no means!
He sought the Father's will, and worked the Father's work, in all
he planned and wrought ; for he and the Father are one in pur-
pose and performance.
The Saviour's words may be adopted by every one who is con-
scious of being an agent in God's hands. For " we are laborers
together with God," as were the early Christians addressed by
Paul, as well as ** God's husbandry," and " God's building." For,
reason and believe as we may, in renird to conflicting opinions on
God's sovereignty and man's freedom, all will admit that every
good work of man's is also God's ; and that, however God may
work in us to will and to do, by the movings of His Spirit, we
freely do that will, and are accountable in doing it. Hence we,
too, may say, " Our Father worketh hitherto [to this end ?] and
we work."
We can apply the language even to those who are not conscious
of being co-workers with God — ^^ who are not sensible that God's
Spirit is the moving cause of their well-doing. For all good is of
God — from Him cometh ** every good and perfect gift," no mat-
ter how produced or by whom bestowed.
18 UNIVERSALIST COMPANION,
But let us advance one step further. A wicked man designs
and works evil. That design and act God overrules for good, not
only to the injured party, but to all concerned. The man deserves
and receives punishment for his motive and his action ; but is,
nevertheless, an agent in God's hand, for the production of that
good result — not, as in the case of a good man, a joyous, intelli-
gent co-worker with God, but an ignorant, blind, undesigning in-
strument, whose plans are to be defeated, and his aims to be over-
thrown. There can be little doubt of this. The numerous cases
recorded in the Bible, wherein wicked men — whole armies and
nations of the heathen — were used to inflict punishments on
God's chosen people, settle this point Those evil men and armies,
whatever their own motives and purposes, were mere "rods" in
God's hand — were his " holy* angels," or special messengers of
His chastisements — and were, therefore, the agents of God for
that purpose only. They could not use the Saviour's words, (not
being conscious of the fact uttered in them ; for they worked only
for self and for ecU, and probably supposed they were defeating
God's will,) but God recognized them as His agents, and their
deeds were His providences.
And if thus it is in the whole range of Bible history, why not
thus in the entire moral government of the universe ? — why not
in every individual case of salvation ? God is the Supreme. Of
all causes. He is the First Cause. In all agencies. He is the Orig-
inal Agent. Hence God is pre-eminently " the Saviour of all
men " — "a just God and a Saviour.*'
But Jesus is also a Saviour — even the Saviour — called thus by
inspiration of God, for *^ he shall save his people from their sins ^
— and " exalted of God to be a Prince and a Saviour," so that
there is no " other name under heaven whereby men can be
saved."
And yet men have been sent forth and set apart for the work of
salvation; and individuals are called upon to save themselves and
others — to save themselves " from this untoward generation," to
^ work out their own salvation with fear and trembling," and to
" confess with the mouth," and " believe in the heart," and thus
be saved.
How reconcile these seemingly conflicting passages of Holy
Writ ? Easily. The Scripture writers were not subtle metaphy-
sicians, nor did they write for the amusement of such ; but were
earnest, practical, common-sense men, and wrote to be understood
by such. They wrote as they/ett — as they saw the subject un-
der all the varying lights which different situations and circum-
stances threw upon it. They felt — they knewy that believing,
confessing and obe}ang the truth, was tlitir own ad — they knew
♦ The word •• holy " is often used to signify a thing set apart fbr
aior s^red or divine service, as " holy garments." A. B. o.'
AND ALMANAC FOR 1860. 19
that Jesns, by his teachings and his example, had brought them
to believe, confess and obey — and they knew that God sent Jesus
to save them, and gave him His Spirit for their salvation, without
which they could not have been saved — and they spoke and
wrote accordingly.
Now place yourself in their circumstances and you will readily
understand them. Believe Ood to be really the Supreme Cause
and Ruler of all beings, things and events ; and therefore certain to
do all His will and accomplish all His pleasure. Believe Jesus to
be the Sent of God, to wnom He has ^en " all power in heaven
and earth," and constituted him " the Head of every man," and
" given him power over all flesh, that he should give eternal life **
to alL Then, believe whatsoever you will, or can, of man's free-
dom and agency — of his accountability and power of self-deter-
mination. Only make this latter subordinate to and consistent
with the two former items. Let God be as infinitely free as you
make man finitely free — and Christ powerful in his supreme
agency, in proportion to man's power as a mere subordinate agent
— and you will find no difficulty as regards the final issue and con-
clusion.
As to the language of the several passages quoted and alluded
to, we use similar language almost daily. We say — " Mr. A. is
building a house ;" meaning that he only supplies the means and
employs the chief builder. Or, "Mr. B. is building Mr. A.'s
house ; " meaning that he furnishes the plan, buys the materials,
and employs the workmen. Or, " Mr. B.'s workmen are building
Mr. A.'s house ; " meaning that they work out the plan and work
up the materials furnished them. Each form of words is correct
— that is, it truly describes the action or event as seen from that
particular point of view. Mr. A. furnishes the means and em-
ploys Mr. B. to procure the materials and hire the workmen to
Duild the bouse for Mr. A.
Now apply this to the varied Scripture statements about our
salvation. Uod saves us. He sent Jesus to save us. Jesus re-
vealed the Gospel and instituted ministries to save us. By using
the means thus furnished we save ourselves. Each form of ex-
pression is the truth, as viewed from a particular position — and
all the forms, unitedly, give us the eiltire truth, as seen from all
the different mental stand-points.
'* But," it may be asked, " if human agency, and conditions to
be performed or attained by it, are admitted as the closing link of
the chain, does not that imply uncertainty of final salvation for
some of mankind ?" By no means ; if Divine agency is unlimited
and supreme, and human agency limited and subordinate. True,
we may not be able to tell precisely where the divine and human
agencies begin or end — nor how r.hey meet, mingle, unite and
work together — nor where the divine takes up the work the hu-
i agency has wrought out, and carries it forward (or overrulet
20 UNIVERSALIS! COMPANION,
it) unto completion. But all will admit that there must be some
limit to the finite — that God can and does operate on the human
understanding, will and affections, so as utterly to change them,
and yet do no violence to their nature or their freedom. The con-
version of St. Paul is an extreme case, but not a solitary one.
Every fulfilment of prophecy — every conversion of a sinner — is
in proof of the fact. Jaow it is done, we know not — nor dare we
limit His operations to " the chief of sinners," or to anv sinner —
for His is tne Supreme mind and the Omnipotent moral power —
He is the Infinite.
Neither do conditions imply uncertainty in God's mind, nor
need they imply doubt in regard to His revelation of the result.
He who made the conditions knew whether they would be fulfill-
ed, and with that knowledge He has revealed Universal Salvation
for our belief. On that promise we trust as confidently as on any
prophecy He has given us. As human agency fulfils the one, so
will it fulfil the other. The result is sure, as promised ; be the
conditions what they may, they will be fulfilled. No prophecy of
God has ever failed — no promise of Ilis can ever prove false —
hence Universal Salvation is sure.
We re-publish in this number an article written some years
since, which may aid the reader to a fuller and clearer understand-
ing of our views on this subject, headed " Prophecy." We might
have re-written and incorporated it into this article, but on consid-
eration we were satisfied that we could not make it stronger or
clearer than it now is, and therefore prefer to give it as it was
first written. A. B. G.
PROPHECY. ,
Though man's agency may be free in all its power and extent,
yet it never has succeeded in disappointing the ken and prediction
of Omniscience. Man works his will, but God also works ; and
though man's will is done, yet in the final result God's purpose is
also accomplished with this difference, — that man, in working evil,
brings misery, anguish and moral death on his own soul ; where-
as God's working ends in the defeat of wickedness, the overrul-
ing of evil, and the production of holiness and joy.
The theory may have diflSculties ; for man's mind can see only a
portion of an infinite subject, and what he does not perceive, may
oe wanting to explain the difficulties which beset his theory of
what he does perceive. But the practice is sure, and the revelation
of God may be relied on, for His providence is continually illus-
trating and proving His teachings. " The Lord bringeth the
counsel of the heathen to nought ; he maketh the devices of the
people of none effect." Yet is their moral agency not controlled
by force, and they freely plan their will — but God also is a free
agent — an Omniscient and Omnipotent one — hence it is added
AND ALMANAC FOR 1860. 21
— ** The counsel of the Lord standeth forever ; the thoughts of
His heart to all generations." — Psalms xxxiii. 10, 11.
The only difficulty with our Partialist friends, is, in supposing
that God does not, or cannot overrule all the evil — that after the
wicked have unwittingly yet freely fulfilled the prophecy of God
for the good of others, the evil unto themselves can never be like-
wise overruled for their good. They suppose God's overruling
proyideiice at an end, when it is only in the middle of its opera-
tions — that having overruled the ^eatest evil designed, He gives
up in despair of overruling the residue — that having brought de-
liverance to the many. He gives over and allows the few to suffer
endlessly. Thus they limit the Holy One of Israel, whose year for
working is the endless ages, and whose power knows no defeat or
weariness. A. B. G.

This ancient mode of spelling c/<»ti« is thus beautifully though
quaintly used by George Herbert, who wrote about 200 years ago.
He is the author of Hymns 466 and 962 in Chapin and Adams'
Collection* A. B. o.

ANECDOTES FOR THE SOCIAL CIRCLE.
L John Adams on Original Sin. — " Either original sin is di-
visible or indivisible. If divisible, every descendant of Adam and
Eve must have a part ; and the share which falls to each individu-
al at this day is so small a particle, that I think it is not worth
considering.^ If indivisible, then the whole quantity must have
descended in a straight line, and must now be possessed by one
person only, and the chances are millions and millions to one, that
that person is now in Asia or Africa, and that I have nothing to
do with iV—Letters to His Wife,
n. Without Faith or Works. — When Bishop Chase was
Bishop of Ohio, he encountered, on one occasion, the Chief Justice
of the same State, whom he had not met for many years. They
had been schoolmates, and the Bishop reminded hin mend of old
times, and, with a comfortable air of self-satisfaction, con^atulat-
ed him upon their success in life, and the honorable i^aitioxvi^ m
22 UNIVERSALIST COMPANION,
which they found each other after their lon^ separation, conclud-
ing with — ** and better than all, Judge, I find you are a member
of our Church."
" Well,*' said the Judge, " that's more a matter of chance than
anything else. You see, when I was getting estai)lished in ray
profession, wife and I thought s^e ought to join some church —
't was more respectable. So, after mature deliberation, we settled
down with the Baptists, and got on very well for a time. But they
kept harping on *faiih — faithy till we pretty soon discovered
that they required moie faiih thui we had ; so it became necessa-
ry to make a change. We turned the matter over considerably,
and at last, for various reasons, made up our minds to join the
Methodists. Here we shortly found that t-he demand was ' worTcs
— works,* and it was presently apparent that they demanded more
UDorks than we were able to perform. With great reluctance we
concluded that we must change again, and we cast about with
much caution, that this move might be final. At last we decided
to connect ourselves with your church. Bishop, and have got
along famously ever since, wUhotU eithtr faith or works /"
[Fortunate man I had he joined the Universalists, he would have
found it required more f aim Uian among the Baptists — more faith
in God, in Jesus, in humanity ; — and more works than among the
Methodists — for his entire faith being practical, would have re-
quired his whole life to be good works accordingly. A. B. o.]
III. Total Depravitt. — ^A missionary in the West holding an
animated theological conversation with an old lady, asked her
what she thought of the doctrine of total depravity ? " Oh," she
replied, *' I thmk it is a good doctrine, if people would only live up
ioUr
IV. Heavy but not Bright. — A eentleman and his wife were
once conversing on the subject of dull and uninteresting preach-
ers. The lady said,-—
Mr. — - is really a wretched preacher.
Husband, My dear, Mr. is one of the most sound, ortho-
dox preachers 1 know.
Lady. He may be very orthodox, but he ia very heavy.
EuJtand, Gold is heavy.
Lady. Yes, but Gold is bright
V. Retort Uncourteous. — While two little girls, one the
daughter of a clergyman, the other, the child of one of his parishion-
ers, were playing together, they fell into an angry dispute, as chil-
dren often will, in imitation of their seniors. To mortify and
Bpite her antagonist, the layman's little girl saw fit to remind her
of her Other's well-known poverty, and intimated, rather tartly,
ttMt bad it aot been for her father's benevolent interference, the
poormiaiMter would have been in the woxk-lioute.
AND ALMANAC FOR IMO. 23
** Well, I don't care/' replied the other, " if it hadn't been fox
my father, yours would have been in he^, long ago ! "
VL Views OF Heaven. — ^The idea of heaven as a MtcUe^ and n<4
as a place, is incomprehensible — it must be somewhere. Especial-
ly is this felt by children, who are very generally instructed that
neaven is above the sky, and who feel it to be a violent wrench to af-
fection as well as to faith, when their infantile heaven is utterly
displaced, and left afloat, they know not where, in infinite space.
Hood, in ** 1 remei^ber," truly says —
** It was a childish ignorance,
But now 'tis little joy.
To know Pmfltrther off from heaven
Than when I was a boy.*'
A poor, igriorant woman in England disputed with an Astrono-
mer concerning the stars. She contended that they were mere
** holes in the shy to let 06^ s glory shine through.** His philoso-
phy was not more correct as to the worlds above, than was her re-
ngion as to the result produced by their shining. The following
has reference to the same childish views of heaven, and is no less
beautiful:
A little Swedish girl, while walking with her father on a starry
night, absorbed in contemplation of the skies, being asked of whi^
she was thinking, replied, ** I was thinking if the wrong side of
heaven is so glorious, what must the right side be P **
Vn. Effects of Pbeachino. — ^A sermon, unless very striking
or peculiar in some of its parts, is seldom long remembered by a
congregation. It may, however, be the means of lasting good,
though it be like the early dew that goeth away — a thougnt fine-
ly illustrated by a pious Scotch woman.
A gentleman riding by the bleaching-ground in which she waa
engaged, watering webs of linen cloth, asked her where she went
to church, what she had heard on the preceding day, and how much
she remembered. She could not tell even the text of the last ser-
mon!
" And what good can the preaching do you," said he, *< if you
forget it aUP"
** Ah, sir," replied the woman, '^ if you look at the web on the
grass, you will see that as fast as ever I put the water on it, the
sun dries it all up ; and yet, sir, I see it gets whiter and whiter."
Vin. Short Pbaters^ — ^Dr. King relates the following impres-
sive anecdote. In 1715, (says he,) 1 dined with the Duke of^ Or-
mond, at Richmond. During the dinner, there was a jocular dis-
pute, f I forget how it arose) concerning short i:rayer8. Mr. Wm.
Wyndmun told us that the shortest prayer he had ever heard waa
Uie prayer of a common soldier, just before the batde ot B\«iGit!lc^«^m^
24 UNIVERSALIST COMPANION,
" O God, if there be a God, save my soul, if I have a soul !" This
was followed by a general laugh. I immediately reflected that
such a treatment of the subject was too ludicrous, at least improp-
er, where a learned and rehgious prelate was one of the company.
But I soon had an opportunity of making a different reflection.
Atterbur^, seeming to join in the conversation, and applying him-
self to Sir William Wyndham, said, ** Your prayer, Sir William,
is indeed very short ; but I remember another as short, but^ a
much better, offered up likewise bv a poor soldier in the same cir-
cumstances. " O God, if in the aay of battle I forget thee, do
thou not forget me ! " This, as Atterbury pronounced it, with his
usual grace and dignity, was a very gentle and polite reproof, and
was immediately felt by the whole company.
IX. EccENTKic Prayeks. — Rev. Nathaniel Howe, of Hopkin-
ton. Mass, exchanged with a brother on a Sabbath when the morn-
ing chanced to be rainy, and the afternoon pleasant. Observing a
much larp^er attendance at the second service, he commenced his
prayer with the following : " O Lord ! have mercy on afternoon
nearers and fair weailier Christians" When Dr. bmalley was or-
dained, the same minister said in the ordaining prayer, '* O Lord,
may thy young servant put down the Methodists, and the Univer-
salists, and the Episcopalians, by preaching better, and praying
better, and living better than they !"
That the " Orthodox" should enter into a rivalry to " live bet-
ter" than Universalists, was a very proper prayer, for that would
be a noble strife. But we defy them to preach or pray better — i.^.
for better things. What can be preached that is better, or pray-

X. Singing and Gitino. — ^A colored woman in Jamaica was
fond of going to missionary meetings, and singing, with great ap-
parent zeal and fervor :
*' Fly abroad, thou mighty gospel!*'
But whenever the plates went round for contributions, she al-
ways sung with her eyes fixed upon the ceiling. On one occasion,
however, a negro touched her with the plate and said, *' Sissy, it
no use for you to sing * Fly abroad mignty gospel,' with your eyes
fixed on the comer of the ceiling : it no use to sing ' Fly abroad'
at all, unless you give something to make it fly." ,
This colored woman has numberless imitators. It is very easy
to preach without giving. But the meat of the whole matter of
religion is in giffing — ^that is, in carrying a heart within us full of
love to our brother man, and cherishing a deep and steady desire
to promote the good of those around us. And yet how many
there are in all congregations,^ who will join with great zeal in
singing ** Fly abroad thou mighty gospel," but when the plate
ces round, ieep their eyes fixed en wm ceiling!

DisFELLOWsmpPED. — The Committee of Discipline of the
State Convention made a Report, charging Rev. J. A. Bartlett
with an intemperate use of intoxicating liquors, for which they
had suspended him from the fellowship of the Convention,
which report was accepted with amendment, that if Mr. Bartlett
continued abstinent for one year he should be restored.
Th€ Maine Law of Prohibition, after being repealed, was re-
enacted in obedience to a popular vote, and is now in force — the
'* Gospel Banner" says it is almost universally approved, and
quite generally sustained, and may be set down as a *' successful
experiment"

40. UNIVERSALIST COMPANION,
Death. — ^Rev. Charles Hammond departed this life in
Rochester, July 10th, 1859. About thirty years ago, and until
■ome ten years since, he was an active and approved Universalist
preacher, writer and for many years editor. When Spiritualism
became known to him, he embraced it in one of its forms, and
from that time was generally best known as one of its lecturers
and authors. He was always esteemed an honest, earnest and
worthy man. His disease was consumption, which terminated
somewhat suddenly, though he suffered from it for several years.
It is believed that there was no change in his views and feelings
at the close of his life.

Death. — Kcv. Joseph Clarke, long and favorably known at
" Father Clarke," departed " Home" from Mount Pleasant, March
28th, 1859, aged 72 years. He was many years in the Methodist
Ministry — ^we believe in Maryland and that region — but became a
conTert to the full Gospel some fifteen years ago, since when his
gratitude and love, like his joy, have been literally " unspeakable
and full of glory." He was truly a Universalist in heart as in
faith— affectionate, single-minded, pure in life, and courteous to
alL Converted late in life, and when the physical frame was
feeble, he was not very extensively known as a preacher among us ;
but where known, much beloved. His " golden wedding" was
celebrated in the First Church, Cincinnati, a few years ago, (Dr.
Williamson officiating,) and the companion of his early manhood
and sharer of his old age, yet survives him.

Death.*— i?«?. David Pickering departed this life at Ypsilanti,
January 6th, 1859, aged 70 years, 7 months, and 9 days. He was
bom in Richmond, N. H., and commenced his religious life
among the Free Will Baptists, at the age of 16 or 17. But not
lone after, he received a more enlarged faith, under the ministry
of Kev. Paul Dean, and soon commenced its proclamation. He
wan fellowshipped in 1809, at Bernard, Vt, by our General Con-
vention, and was settled and preached statedly in Barre, Shrews-
burv, and St. Johnsbuiy, Vt. ; in Lebanon, N. H. ; in Providence,
R. L ; in Hudson, New York city, Bufiialo, Chautauque county,
Newport, Aurora, Willink, Morris, Alden, N. Y. ; and in Ypsilanti,
Miih. In the early and active period of his ministry, he edited
the " Christian Telescope," compiled an ezi client Hymn Book,
and Dublished ** Lectures in defence of Divine Revelation " — the
two last named works have been widely circulated. His love
of Mr. Dean, as well as his own views of the state of departed
souls, led him to unite with a few " Restorationicts " who seceded
from the great body of Universalists, in 1831; but when that
•mail body waned and dissolved away, he returned to the com-
mun^'on and fellowship of his early days. During his first reai«
dence in Western ana Central New York, he was much afflicted
"With erysipelas in his head, which often affected his brain, and led
^BM wno were unacquainted with the fact, or with the operations
'0f the diseaae, to charge him with moral delinquency,
But
AND ALMANAC FOR 1600. 46
during th0 laat yean of hif life, he was not only freed from the
diaease, but these false charges were fully understood and entirely
withdrawn. He removed to Michigan some four years ago, hvk
waa unable to preach much on account of poor health generally,
and tbe failure of his voice especially. He waa around as usual
two days before his death, wluch was caused by a sudden attack
of broschitia. Bv. P. was married three times — a widow and
several children survive him* He was a good writer, *' an able
preacher, a sincere Chriatian, and naturally a social and generow

OuB Cause in this State is onward and upward among the
people, notwithstanding the great scarcity of money and pressure
of " bard times/' have suspended the operations of Missionary
tnd Education Boards, and compelled some Societies temporarilr
to dismiss their preachers and hold reading meetings instead, until
times shall mend — as they probably will, after the present harvest.

Grand Total. — I General Convention, 1 Historical Society, 1

Thanks are heartily given to all who furnished us with statistics
and correctiona, and aided us in correcting our proof-sheets, and
to our Editors, one and all, for publishing our notices and other
efficient assistance. A. B. Grosh.
A GOOD EXAMPLE.
The Maine Cimceniion at its late session appointed aComndttee
to prepare a list of its approved ministers, with their post office
addresses, for our Register. The Committee reported a list which
wasan])roved by the Convention, with the following Certtfleate : —
" This is to certify that the foregoing is a correct list of the
approved preachers of the Universalist denomination in this State.
liwBMmeB banng the mark (||) before them belong to those
AND ALMANAC FOR 1860. 57
brethren who have not chosen to ask to be received into the
formal fellowship of the State Convention, but who are spiritually
in fellowship witn us, and are recognized as Universalist ministers
in good standing. By order of the State Convention.
J. O. Skinner, ) Committee to reyise
ZENA8 Thompson. J ^jJ^'^'^Lr.
H. P. Osgood. ) in Maine.
There is a pattern worthy to be followed— hearty thanks to its
movers and executors ! Let eoery State Convention, at its next
seMion, " go, and do likewise ;" and thus not only give us a cor-
rect and reliable list, and thus save us from much perplexity and
undue responsibility, but also save the public from occasional
gross impositions by unworthy pretenders. We have now before
OS Jour letters and proof-sheets in which each writer differs from
the others as to certain names which are to be retained or struck
off! Which shall I follow ? What shall I do? Let the State
Conpentiona imitate the above action, and all doubt is at an end,
and all perplexity and difficultv on this score ceases.
N. B. — At the suggestion of the Gospel Banner, endorsed by
the Chairman of the above Committee, I have added " || J, it.
SmUhf No. Frydmrg^^ to the above list — it was overlooked by
the Committee. A. b. g.

THE LADIES' REPOSITORY.
A new series of this, our only literary Magazine, having com-
menced, we deem it a suitable occasion fur again noticing its
character^ and pressing its claims on the attention of our readers
generally.
1. The paper and printing are equal to the best in fairness and
neatness. The type is large enough to be read by weak and aged
eyes, and without injury by any — which cannot be said of the
more popular monthhes. To all of which the new series has add-
ed ornimental initial letters.
2. Its Editors (Mesdames Bacon, Munroe and Holcomb — late
Soule,) are certainly equal to the lady editors of any magazine in
our land, and superior to most of them. Its contributors are
numerous, and embrace the best of our own denomination (men
and women), and not a few out of our own Church but who should
be in it
3. The literary merit of most of its articles are fully equal to those
generally found in Magazines of this class, while the Repository is
&ee from their trashy effusions. '* Leaves from a sick Room/' in
the last volume, and continued in this, excel, in several respects,
any thing of the kind we have read for years — and other articles,
both tales and essays, are very superior in literary merit.
4. In moral tendency and religious tone, the Repository is in
full accordance with our beautiful and purifying faitn — which no
other literary monthly is, except only occasionally. T?us feature,
alone should secure it the support of every Universalist family in
preference to any other Magazine. Take this first, and if able,
take any other ; but do not n you value your faith and its influence
in your Home Circle, prefer an orthodox or neutral Magazine to
this.
5. This is as cheap as any — all things considered, far cheaper ;
for a saving of the eyes, a sound taste, literary merit, moral
tendency, and religious spirit, who can estimate P The new seri^
has an increase of pages also. *
And now read its terms, and then send on your orders, for copies
for wife, daughter, sister and friend.

UNIVERSALIS! COMPANIOK
SALVATION— ITS CX)NDmONS.
In our issue of 1868, we treated of ** Salvatioii — its meaning" —
uid last year of ** Salvation — its agencies." This vear we de-
sign noticing what are called the eonditunu of Salvation.
L What is meant by conditions of salvation f It is not a scrip-
tural, but simply a theological term. Our opposers generally
mean bv it, certain processes through which men pass into an
qfUr-/ouowing state called salvation, and far the performance of
which they are itfUrwards saved. We, believing salvation to be
odIt from unbelief and sin fin this present life), and from these
and death (in the ftiture life ), mean by conditions of salvation
the nrooesses (or «to^e«, rather) in which men are saved — saved in
and nythem, and continuance in them.
IL what are the conditions of salvation f Our opposers gener-
ally arrange them in consecutive order, as conviction, then faith
and repentance, then conversioa, then justification, then sanctifica-
tion, and lastly glorification. We, on the contrary, regard the
terms belief, repentance, conversion, justification, &c., as varied
tenns used bv tne Scriptures to designate, not successive stages
or degrees of regeneration, but simply varied views of the same
progressive divine work in the human soul — terms to express
the process of regeneration as seen from different points of vision,
and with reference to the different relations of its subjects.
To explain more clearly our meaning, we will define the terms
themselves, so that each one will express to our mind a clear and
simple idea, removing from it, all vagueness and doubt
1 . Faith is confidence in God — in ilis Son as His representa-
tive, and consequently in what God reveals to us.
2. Belief, from be-live or by-live, is to live by, or in accordance
with that coxifidence.
8. Repentance, is the translation of two different words in the
Bible — one, sorrow or grief of any kind; the other, reformation
(the forming over again) of opinion, conduct and lijfe. Be-pent,
change the mind unto a reformation of character.
4. Conversion is simply a turning in the way — to turn from
A wrong to a right course or direction. James v. 19, 20.
5. Justify — to make just; not to consider or call that iust
which is not so. The prmter justifies, when he spaces out a line

6. SANCTjrY — ^tomake samtly (saint-like), or holy ; not to pre-
tend or calrit so, when it is sinful or unholy ; but to make it so

7. Glorify — to make glorious, with a moral or spiritual lustre
or brightness.
Remember those definitions — that each word expresses a simple
idea ; for we are treating of div ine and spiritual realities, and not,
of human theological shams — ^not of the deceptions subtleties of
schoolmen, or the fig-leaf coverings of creed-makers. '* He that
hath this hope in /Ti'in, purifieth himself even as He is pure.**
III. If these terms simply express the same general state or
condition, instead of the various grades or degrees of that state,
why the-e numerous terms ? •
Divine revelation, in condescension to human weakness and
limitation, considers and represents man in all the varied lights
and relations in which we are compelled to behold him — first from
one point of view, thpji from another, as our limited views of his
relations present him ; for we see and know (even ourselvcsj in part
only ; varying its presentations of truth in accommodation to our
partial views, it uses language accordingly. In relation to our
physical powers, when their propensities govern us, we are called
*' carnal" or fleshly ; but in relation to our spiritual nature, when
it governs, we are called "spiritual." P!!ach term embraces the
whole of that state or condition as seen from the relation contem-
plated. So, to express the same state, but with relation to ori-
gin as to flesh and spirit, we are called *' of the earth, earthly t*^ or
" of heaven, heavenly,^ Again, each term embraces the entire
state or condition as seen in that relation. And similar to these
are the terms, " mortal" and " immortal," "outer mau" and "in-
ner man," the ** old " and the " renewed man," &c.
Considered as aliens to, or as subjects of the kingdom of God,
(heaven or Christ,) we are said to be in a state of nature or u
state of grace*-in Adam or in Christ, enemies or friends, ^c.
But each term, however, opposed to or contrasted with the others,
expresses the entire state or condition to which it is applied, as
seen from the particular stand-point from which the subject is
viewed. Hence a man out of the kingdom of God, is said to be
deadf carnal, lost, alienated, astray, sold, an enemy, a sinner, nt^
just, unrighteous, unclean, dishonored, blind, unhdiecing, unfaith-
ful^ reprobated, a debtor, condemned (or damned), a foreigner, &c.
but the moment he becomes a dweller in Christ's kingdom, every
one of these terms, as applicable to his relations and state, is re-
versed or changed to the opposiite. He is said to be alive, spirit-
ual, found, reconciled (or atoned), conceiicd, redeemed, a friend, a
siint or sanctified), ^Wi/f«cf, righteous, htly, glorified, enlightened,
dJievint/, faithful t elected, f or gvoei\,mvcdy a cUiz€n,tS:c, Each of
AND ALMANAC FOR 1661. 19
these terms, as well as their opposites or contrasts, expresses the
entire state or condition— but only as seen in the view taken of the
subject's relation to that condition.
As 1 wish to be fUlly understood, permit an illustration. Let
oar gorernment represent the kingdom of Jesus. Speaking of
those out of it, in reference to their location, they Kte fweigner^ —
as to their allegiance, they are dUeM — as to their civil rights, they
are tm/emfratukUed^dA to their citizenship by nature, they are not
naiwraUted, Each term expresses the entire condition, and is
varied only by the relation in which it is viewed. When they be-
come citisens, we reverse the above term, and call them adopted^
MitfeeUf enfirandiised, natwxUized ; and each term again gives an
idea of the entire state as seen from a particular point of view.
So in the heavenly kingdom which the Saviour has set up among
men. All unbelievers and sinners are in Adam, foreigners and
aliens ; but viewed as Christ's heritage they become in Christ, fel-
low-citizens and heirs, and joint heirs with him.
Now citizenship in a government is not a reward for becoming
a citizen, but is round in being a citizen. Naturalization is the
condition in which citizenship is enjoyed. So of rq^entance, con-
tenriont &e., they are not processes to be nassed through that sal-
vation may be attained beyond them, ana enjoyed after and for
them ; but states to be entered into and continued in as salvation
itself; for they are themselves the salvation from unbelief and sin.
We might as well ask a reward for eoing to heaven, as expect
salvation for repenting, being converted, justified, &c. These pro*
ceases or conditions are not means, but tne end — that is, so far as
our salvation by faith is concerned — a continuous and progres-
sive state, it is true, but still the state itself, and therefore the end.
rV. Lastly, it ma^ be asked, how imperfect beings, as the best
Christians on this side of immortality admittedly are, can be said
to be sanctified and even glorified ? We might answer, (and truely,
though not fully), that only the governing or main principle of
their characters is taken into account, and gives the name to all
the rest Being generally believers and doers of the word, they
are regarded as holy, ju^t, and glorious altogether. But, we ap-
prehend that a deeper philosophy lies at the foundation of this
answer. All things in the kingdom of Ood on earth, are but
shadows of the realities in the immortal spiritual state. The new-
birth by faith is merely a type of the resurrection or higher birth
to a wholly spiritual life of knowledge. So our re-formnticn, nur
con-version, our being made just, saint-like, glorious, by faith
bere, ia but the shadow of that re-formation, con-version, sanctifica-
tion and glorification, which knowledae there, will make for uk an
eternal reality. Then hope being lost in fruition, aiid Itiitti in
possession of the things themselves, the imperfect sliadow wi.l be- .
eome the immortal substance.
By considering our regeneration on earth, w'llVv i^^t^teivd^ Vq
20 UNIVERSALIST COMPANION,
that perfect new^birth of which it is merely a type or prefifforation,
we perceive readily why those fallible and often erring Qiristiaiia
of tne primitive church were called the holy, or the saints. It was
not that they had already attained unto perfection in reality, hot
that the^ had entered into an earthly state, or relation unto Ood
and Christ, which was a figure of the true that is yet to oome—
had obtained a witness and a pledge that they would finally be freed
uUerlift as they now were in general, from the dominion of un-
belief and sin — from the dominion of the flesh and its luata.
And as that immortal reality is not a pre-reouisite to an after
aalvation, but salvation itself from sin and death -- so ia this
shadow or type thereof, not the pre-re<}uisite of salvation from un«
beliel' and sm here, but salvation itselt.
"^ A« B.Q.
SKETCHES OF SERMONS.
In the winter of 1832-33, (possibly it may have been a year
later) I delivered a Series of Sermon« which attracted some at-
tention, chiefly perhaps because of the quaint announcement of
Five Things, out partly because of the condensed information im-
parted. The sketches (skeletons rather) of a number of them are
among my papers. Subjoined are two of them.
I do not present them as specimens of what sermons Mhmld be,
though I confess myself incompetent to set forth a more compre-
hensive series of propagaud discourses. I have repeatedly read
them with that view. ^ ▲. c. T.
I.
What is tJie Almighty f
I. God is the Fathkr of Spibits as contra-distinguished from
"father of the flesh," Heb. xii. 9. One God and Father of all,
Kph. iv. 6. This is his primitive, universal relation. The obe-
dient are his childroi in character. Matt y. 44, 45. Disobedient
children are the children of the Deyii, Eph. ii. 2 ; John yiii. 44.
II. He is the LiyiNO God, as contra-distinguished from dead
idols. He is the yital good, God oyer all, blessed tor eyer. He
is not awake in wrath, nor asleep in indifierenee, but eyer liytng,
ever operative, in his harmonious attributes.-— Goodness prompts,
wisdom plans, power executes-^and all is centered in esseimai
love, John iv. 8.
III. He is the true God, as contra-distinguished fK>m the partial
and changeable < lords many and gods many* of Paganiam.
Christianity correots even the narrow notions of Judabm, in de-
claring that God is no respecter of persons. He is reliable, be-
cause he changes not A knowledge of the true Ood is eternal
hfe, John xvii. 3.
AND ALMANAC FOR 1861. 21
IV. He is the Lawgiver and Judge of All. — All his laws and
iudgments are within the circumscription of a Father's purpose.
When the kingdom of Christ shall ha^e completed its mission of
law and judgment, the kin^om shall he delivered up to the
Father, that God majr hs all m all,'l Cor. xt. 28.
v. He is the Savioxtr of All, especially of helievers, 1 Tim.
IT. 10. If the deolaratkm were that the liTing God is the SaTiour
of thoaa OMLT who beUere, the sense would evidently he restricted i
but belieTers af e specially saved, which confirms the testimony
that he is the Satioua of ali^ in hb final purpose, Gal. vL 10. 1

What think ye of Christ P
L He is the Mediator between God and Men, 1 Tim. ii. 5,
himself being the Son of God according to the spirit, and the Son
of Man according to the flesh. The Divinity sanctified the Hu-
manity, and he waa one with the Father in Spirit and in purpose.
God was in Christ reconciling the world Unto himself, 2 Cor. v.
19. To thia end, he waa the Mediator of a better covenant than
tbo Law, because established on better promises.
IL He is the Image of the invisible God, the first-bom of
every creature, OoL L lA. We may leAm the cbaraeter of God
by afudyiBf the life of the Redeemer. Hia miracles were of
mercy, not of cruelty. His love could not be quenched by manv
waters. Thoae from whom the imagi died, ike imHnbh (Sod will
certainly save and sanctify.
IIL He ia THE Witness op God. He came into the world to
bear witneaa unto the truth, John xviiL 37. He is the faithful
witneaa, Bev. L 6, and therefore the true li^, for whatsoever
dotb make manifiBst ta Ught, Eph. v. 13. Chnst enated no tnith,
but bore wUtuee to the truth. He counterworked death, and
bnMif he life and immortality to light, 9 Tim. i. 10.
IV* Ha Is Lord of All, Acts x. 36, both of the dead and the livinff,
Bonana xiv« 9. ^ By fift : The Father loveth th« Son, and hath
given all things into hu hands, John iii. 36. Bv redetnptitm : He
gAve iBidaelf a rana6m for ail, a testimony in due time, 1 Tim. ii.
S. Byinhenianee : He is heir of all things, Heb. i. 2.
V. He is the Savioub o^ the Wobli», 1 John iv. 14— wit-
neaaed by manv symbols. He was the Lamb, without blemish or
spot, a|mointea to take away the sin of the world, 1 Peter i. 10,
John L SO. He is like a refiner's fire and like fuller's soap, Md.
liL 8. The mission of Christ shall be effectual, and the devil and
all hia works shall be destroyed, Heb. ii. 14; 1 John iii. 8.
22 UNTVERSALIST COMPANION,
IS FRIDAY AN UNLUCKY DAY?
From time immemorial Friday has been considered an unlucky
day. And though the prejudice is less prevalent now than it has
been of yore, when superstition had general sway, yet there are
many even in this matter-of-fact age of ours, who would hesitate
on a day so suspicious, to begin an undertaking of momentous
interest. And now many brave mariners, whose hearts unquail-
ing could meet the wildest fur^ of their ocean home, would blanch
to even bend their sails on Fnday. But to show with how much
reason this feeling is indulged, let us examine the following im-
portant facts in connection with our new settlement and greatness
as a nation, and we will see how little cause we Americans have
to dread the fatal day^
On Friday, August 21, 1492, Christopher Columbus sailed on
his gpreat voyage of discovery.
On Friday, October 12, 1492, he first discovered land.
On Friday, Jan. 4, 1493, he sailed on his return to Spain, which
if he had not reached in safety, the happy result would never
have been known which led to the settlement on this vast conti-
nent.
On Friday, March 16, 1493, he arrived at Palos in safe^.
On Friday, Not. 23, 1493, he arrived at UiipanioU in hia
second voyage to America.
On Friday, Jane 13, 1494, he, though unknown to himself dis-
covered the continent of America.
On Friday, March 5, 1496, Henry VIII. of England gave to
John Cabot his commission, which led to the discovery of North
America. This is the first American State paper in England.
On Friday, Sept. 7, 1564, Melendez foundea St Augustine, the
oldest town in tbe United States, br more than forty fan.
On Friday, Nov. 10, 1620, the Mayflower, with the Pilgrims
made the harbor of Provinoetown. And the same day thev sign-
ed Uiat august oompact, the forerunner of out present gloriooa
Constitution.
On Friday, Dec 22, 1620, the Pilgrims made their final landing
at Plymouth Book-
On Friday, Dec 22, Qeorge Washington, the Father of Ameri-
can Freedom was bom. *
On Friday, June 16, Bunker Hill was seised and fortified.
On Friday, October 7, 1777, the surrender of Saratoga was
made, which had such power and influence in inducing Franco to
declare for our cause.
On Friday, September 22, 1780, the treason of Arnold was laid
bare, which savea us from destruction.
On Friday, Oct 19, 1781, the surrender at Yorktown, the
crowning glory of the American arms occurred.
AND ALMANAC FOB 1861. 23
On Friday, July 7, 1776, the motion in Congress was made by
John Adams, seconded bv Kichard Henry Lee, that the United
States Colonies were, and of a right ought to be, free and inde-
pendent
Thus, numerous examples, we see that however it may be with
other nations, Americans need never dread to begin on Friday
any undertaking,, however momentous it may be. — Norfolk BcH'

READ THE FOLLOWING.
We cut the following pertinent dialogue from the Tntrnpet,
Let those wAo believe that Universalism is not a doctrine of the
Bible read it : —
Scriptural Puraseoloqt.
" Two neighbors once met, and had the following conversatioa
on Scriptural phraseology : —
Universalist Good morning, neighl)or. Yesterday was Sun-
day. I attended 4ivine service, and heard an excellent aermon.
XtsMtonofk Your doctrine is totally opposed to the Bibles
There is lyundly a page on which it is not asserted that the sentiment
whieh yott have embraced is fitlse. You are obliged to twist the
Scriptures, from their original sense, in order to give them the
mere appearance of &voring Universalism.
UnL Not so, my friend. The very language of the Scriptures
in its plainest and most primitive sejise, favors the doctrine of
Umversalism.
Lim, You cannot make that appear.
UnL I think I can. At any rate, let us see. St Paul says,
' God will have all men to be saved ; ' and he adds that Jesus
Christ ' gave himself a ransom for all.'
Lim, Yes, true, but the word all does not signify eoerff man.
If it signifies everv man, you would have gainea your point. It
is said all the world was taxed, whereas that meant only the land
of Judea. It is certain that the word all does not mean every
man.
Uni. Let us then take another passage. See Heb. ii. 9, where
It is said of Jesus, that ' he by the grace of God tasted death for
EVKRT MAN.
Lim. Yes, yes— well, well— well pass over that— we won't stop
to dispute that now — ^these disputes ain't good, you know, neigh-
bor. But, but all the world is not to be saved. Certainly, be-
cause that is a very Udfentious doctrine.
Uni, But in reference to this phrase, every man. You recol-
lect also, the apostle says, that ' every knee shall bow ; and every
tongue shall confess that Jusus is Lord to the glory of God the
FaUier.'
24 UNIVERSALIST COMPANION.
Lim. Yc8, but this does not moan that all the' world shall be
saved — not the whole %Dorld, neighbor. Does it ?
Uni, The apostle John said of Christ — ' He is the propitiation
for our sins, and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the
WHOLE WORLD.' There you have the very phrase you yourself used.
Lim. Well, now, what an ingenious man you are ; who would
have thought of that P But there are so many passages, you
know — Ah you can't get along with them ; you have the faculty
of explaining away the Bible more than any man in these parts.
I'm jealous tnat this phrase ' whole world' don't mean all men,
without exception, for then all men would be Ibved. You've done
your be^t, you can't go anv fiarther.
Uni. You have a wondrous facility in surmounting obstacles,
neighbor. I have given you the phrases aU men, every man, every
knee, every tongue^ and tne whoU worlds but, in your sight, none
of these signify all men without exception. I will give you then,
another expreMion of the apostle PauL ' AU aludl know me,
from the least to the greatest.^ Does this signify every one with-
out exception ? What do you think, neighbor ?
Lim* Oh, it don't do any good for you and I to oonverse.
You canH change me. You aire satisfied with your fkith, and I'm
satisfied with mine, and we musn't quarrel about religion. Bnt|
O neighbor, if your doetrine is falsa — I warn you to l^ware, 0-*
good morning, good morning."
Characteb better THAif CREDIT. ^We often hear young men
who have credit dolefblly contrasting their lot with toat of rich
men's sons. Yet the longer we live Uie more we are convinced
that the old merchant was right, who said to us when we began
Hfe : — ^ Industry, my lad, is letter than ingots of gold, and char-
acter of more value than creuit.'' We conkl furnish, if need were,
from our own experience, a score of illustrations to prove the
truth of his remarks. In all branches of business, in all avoca-
tions, character in the long run is the best capital. Says Poor
Richard, *' The sound of your hammer, at five in the morning, or
nine in the night, heard by a creditor, makes him easy for six
months longer ; but if he sees you at the gambling table, or hears
your voice at the tavern, when you shouM be at work, he sends
for his money the next day." What is true of the young mechan-
ic is also true of the young merchant or the young lawjer. Old
and sagacious firms will not long continue to ^ve credit for
thousands of dollars, when they see the purchaser, if a young man,
driving fast horses, or lounging in drinlyng saloons. Clients
will not intrust their cases to advocates, however brilliant, who
frequent the card table, the wine party, or the race course. It ia
better in beginning life to secure a reputation for industry and
prolaty, than to own houses and lands, if with them you have no
eiuuiaeter.

Withdrawals — J. Douglass, of Potsdam, after his acquittal by

Rev. H; P. Croiier, of Huntingdon, withdrew to unite with the
Unitarians. ReT. B. Hall withdrew, retaining his faith in the
great aalvadon, and his kindly feelings.
PiAxm. — Mev, Chmrlet Starr Bailey, of Morris, after witnesBing a
good oonfeaaon, died July 3l6t, 18S9, oered about — years. Of his
iari^ life little has been learned. He early eTinced great talents fur
vrinng poetry and declamation; also an impulsive disposition and vao-
lUataDfl: wUL He was active in the Callowhill Street Sunday School,
IliiUuMpfaia, and flrom his (too) docile dispoKition and afiectionate feel-
ingly was a fikvorite there. He studied under direction of Rev. T. D.
Cook, and entered the ministry about 1843, and settled successively in
PotteTiUe, Pa., and Westport, Conn. ; but yielding easily and thought-
leady to seduetive companions to whom his gay spirits attracted him,
kia anlniaterial career closed in clouds and darkness, and an insincere
pnli^ renonolation of his fiiith, about 1846-7. Resolved to retrieve
Ike injory to a cause be really loved, he applied to the writer, and by
kia adViee, retired to private hfe and secular pursuits until the past
ikcrald be forgotten. After several years he went to Edmeston, N. Y.,
aad took an active part as a Uyman in our meetings. In due season,
kk talents, loving sod and prudent life, led his friends to urge his en-
Inaoe into the ministry— even earlier than he himself deemed advim-
Ua. By the advice of his friend, and the solicitations of the people, he
applied for and received the fellowship of the Otsego Association in 1857.
From thenceforward to his untimely and much mourned departure, ho
was " instant, in season, out of season," in making " ftill prot)f of his
ministry;" unaaeuming, yet fervent in piety; prudent, yet untiringly
ikithftal and fSsarless in every p^ood word and work, so that when his Hun
■et at noon-day, it was in bnghtnesH of moral glory, and even ** tliose
of a contrary part " had only praises for his memory.
We record these facts agamut the advice of some who counselled si-
knee, because we deem it due to him to show that he was victor after
base defeat and subjection— and due to others who may stumble, and
even fidl as he did, to show that (God's grace helping them) they may
ndeem thdr characters and make atonement to grieved friends and an
Injured cause. May they profit by the painful yet triumphal lesson.
B£9.J>raiha% Sawyer died in Alton, III., while on a visit there, in
1898. He was bom in Reading, Vt., August 2M, ir^J, and was an
40 UNIVERSALIST COMPANION,
elder brother of Rey. Dr. Sawyer. He became a lawyer, but qnit its
practice about 1834^, and commenced preaching, and settled in Me- .-
aina, N. Y. He preached about thirteen y.ears, prircipally in Munroe,
Orleans and Wayne counties, when failing health, ifi 1850, compelled
him to cease. He was much esteemed and beloved in the circle of his
aoquiintance; and was faithful unto death. He completed his 60th year
the day before his departure.
ReV' Simeon Dutcher died in Gaines, March 23d, 1860, aged 87 years
and d months. We have received no information concerning the events
of his life, but find him recorded as settled in Gaines as early as 1837,
and marked as having formerly been in the ministry of another denom-
ination'—probably Baptist. He was ever reputed a good man and a sin-
cere Christian.
Rev. Pitt Moru died atWatertown, March 19th, 1860, aged 64 veara
He \\ii8 born in Brooklyn, Ct, Feb. 2l8t, 1796— educated in Woodstock
Academy— taught school in that State from 1812 to 1816, except one win-
ter—in 1816 became interested in a revival in that section, ana was led by
his inquiries into Universalism— in 1816 commenced teaching school in
Palatine, N. Y.— removed to Pittsford in 1817, where be founomanyUni-
versalusts and was induced to commence preaching— was fellowshipped
Oct. 7, 1819, and ordained June 8, 1820. In Nov. 18'^, he visited Jefferson
Co. , and commenced preaching statedly in Henderson, Watertown and
Brownville, shortly after. In 1821 , he held a public oral discussion
with the Methodist Presiding Elder of that District, which placed him
in the highest rank as a fair and powerful debater, and gave a new and
lasting im})etus to our cause in all that region. He also commenced a
religious periodical about this time, "The Herald of Salvation.** In
1820 he became pastor of the Lombard Street Church, in Philadelphia
city, and in conjunction with Rev. S. R. Smith, (then at Callowhill
Street,) revived the ** Herald " for a brief period. In 1827 he returned
to Watertown, where he continued pastor until 1838, when he removed
to Henderson, but after a few years again returned to Watertown,
where he resided until his decease. Mr. Morse*s ripe scholarship, calm
and clear speech, ready use of his knowledge and abilities, and quick
perception of the bearings of an argument, made him a tower of
strength in all that Northern region, during his active years, in which
he held many oral and written discussions with our ablest opposers,
who essayed in vain to gain a triumph over our cause in his hands.
Of blameless life, and sound i>ractica] &ith, he illustrated in all the re-
lations of life, living and dying, the virtues he recommended in the
pulpit and from the prets.
Rev, J. 8* Flagler (of Conneaut, O., but belonging mowt here) died
in Darien, N., Y.^ July 4th, 1860, aged 77 years. Laboring under se-
vere illness in Ohio, he came to die at nis old home, among his children,
and especially in the house of his only daughter, Mrs. Tanner. Father
Flagler was, in early life, a Judge in Chenango county. Strongly '* or-
thodox " in faith, he combatted the *' new doctrine *' with all the de-
termined bitterness of a bigot, and the power of a clear, strong, and
acute mind. But his reason was convinced, his heart captivated, and
his will subdued to receive it; and soon he engaged in preaching the
&ith he once attempted to destroy. He settled, some time after, in Da-
rien, Genesee Co., and in all that region he travelled, and preached the
Gospel as he went to and flro, preaching statedly in various places at
different periods. A strong, vigorous thinker and speaker, he impressed
his i>ecuuaritie8 on many minds wherever he went In 1849 he re-

Death.— Hon. John Oalbraith, who died at Erie, Jane 15th, 1860, at
an advanced age, though no preacher, deserves a record here because
of his lon^r, steady anuuseful labors in our cause. Ho had long been
in public life, served as a member of Congress, and at his decease was
President Judge of his district But in all these stations and th^r du-
ties, he was an active Unrrersalist, and gave onr eaoso his advocacy and
example. By speech and pen, in public and in private* he lost n<> rea-
sonable opportunity to make known its principlea, and ttrge their claims
on human &ith and practice. And its spirit impellea him to like ac-
tivity in ever^ refbrm that appeared to him to involve the wel&re of
humanity as its result

ledo. May 20th, 1860, aged 46 yeara. The Unitarian clergyman who
attended his ftmeral, says of Br. Curtis : —
** Helping to earn his own livelihood at the a^ of five years, he at
the age of siiteen became the chief support of his mother, for whom he
always continued to provide, evinoinff in his own fiimily the moat ex-
emplary attachments and devotion. He was ordained a minister of the
gospel at the age of thirty years; preached for a short time at Wolf
Creek, Michigan, and subsequently in various parts of that State be-
fore removing to Perrysburgh, Ohio, where fur three vears he preached
the unrestricted love of God sjid the hope of a blissnil immortality to
the human soul. He removed from Perrysburgh to the more immediate
vicinity of Toledo, about ten years ago.
AND ALMANAC FOR 1861. 45
*
*' My own impressions and knowled^ concerning Mr. Curtis corres-
pond with the unanimous testimony of his friends* and of even those of
his soqnaintances who differ flrom him in theories, in principles, and in
pabUo action. All agree in imputing to him a rare combination of be-
nerolence. uprightness and integrity. His was no cowardly spirit. He
was not afraid to proclaim the goodness and supremacy of the one God,
and to denounce the errors and pr^udices of men* And his was no
bigoted spirit. He honored the religious feelings of aU — aiding and
engaging in the devotion of others who worshipped by diverse lorms
and creeds.'*
In correction of and addition to the above, we find his name regis-
tered (Curtis, S. A.y by mistake) at Branch, Michigan, in th^ issue
for 1839, and not in italics ; so that he probably commenced preaching
as early as 1836 or 37. He continued at Branch, until in 1842 we find
htm registered at Games, N. f., where he remained until in 1845 we
find him registered at Wolf Creek, Mich. In 1847 be was at Perrys-
bareh, U«, and in 1850 at Toledo, as will be seen by the B^cister suc-
ceeding those years. Hence, wherever ordained, he was a ftUowdiiped
preacher at least 33 years ago, when he was 94 years old.
Rev. /. S, Flagler died at Darien, N. T., July 4th, 1860, aged 77
years. See ** New Tork " fi>r the ftiU notice.

DsATH.—ilev. Alfred Peck died at Stoughton, March 4th, 1860, aged
69 years. He was a native of Vermont, and devoted more than halfhia
years to the promulgation of the gospel in Northern Pennsylvania,
Ohio, New York, Maasaohosetts, Iowa and Wisconsin. He edited one
or more papers daring his residence in Pennsylvania, and wrote much
as a correspondent for others. Br. B. F. Bogers writee^*' He was teal-
ous, earnest, fbithftil and true; and his character was without a stain.
He dearly loved Universalism, and labored hard to spread it among
men. His sickness was brief, though severe; but he was sustained by
the faith, he bad preached so many years. Calndy and quietly he
watched me approach of death, his soul all the while nappy and Berak4
and when death came he welcomed it as a kind firiend who would be^
him away to a lovelier .land where he would forever drink in sweeter
joys.**

GENERAL SUMMARY.
We have orsanized bodies of believers in about 34 States and
Territories and four British Provinces ; and State Conventions in
22 Sutes.
Of a national extent, we have a U. S. Co ivention, a Historical
Society (owning a valuable library of rare books) and a General
Reform Association.
We have also a Convention of the Southern States, and a Home
Missionary Association embracing ^o«, and another embracing
pans of uiree States.
Of a State character are our 22 State Conventions, 1 Tract, 2
Educational, and 10 Missionary Societies, a Relief Fund and a
newspaper publishing Establishment
Connected and conterminous with our 86 ecclesiastical Associa-
tions, (which are subordinate to the State Conventions, as the
State Conventions are to the U. S. Convention.) are 1 Tract, 6
68 UNIVERSALIST COMPANION,
Missionary and 2 Sunday School Associations ; and subordinate
to the Associations generally, are 1264 Churches or Societies —
many with Sunday Schools and Bible Classes— owning wholly or
in part 961 meeting-houaes, and supplied by 685 ministers, in-
cluding approved preachers not in formal fellowship.
Our Educational Instituiions are 1 University and another in
progress, 2 Colleges, a Theological School, 6 High or Academic
ochools, 17 periodicals, 20 vols, of new books published within the
year, beside reprints of former publications, tracts, sermons, &c.
In the British Provinces we have 1 Assoniation, 7 Preachers,
12 Churches or Societies, and 8 meeting-houses.
Grand Total.— One General Convention, 1 Historical Society,
1 General lleform Association, a Convention for the Southern
States ; 22 State Conventions, with 15 State orpauizations for
various purposes ; 87 Associations, with 9 associations for various
purposes ; 1276 churches or societies, 969 meeting-houses, 10
Seminaries, 17 periodicals, and 692 preachers.
We have prepared an alphabetical list of all our preachers and
their residences, but find it would occupy nearly seven nages, and
thus exclude all reading matter, and therefore reluctantly omit it.
Would that our people would buy more copies of our little annual
and thut enable our publisher to add more pages to the work !
We should have at least a 25 cent pamphlet, of 120 or 130
pages ; but who would buy enough to save us from loss P
We return hearty thanks to those who sent us statistics and
corrected our proof sheets. Advance copies of the work are all
we can return them in part payment. Thanks must fill up the
measure due. A. B. Grosh. *

BOOK NOTICES.
I. ^ A LiTUHGT, wUh a coUeeHon of Hymns and Chards, for the
UBe of Sunday Schools. By Jaines Lon^ardJ* Abd Tompkins,
.Publisher,
Admitted on all hands to be the best Manual of Sunday School
senricesyet published.
IL "The Modern History op Universalism : Extending
from the ^o<^h of the Beformation to the nresent timef <ftc. By
Thomas Whiitemore." Vol, 1 — embracing the European History,
A, Tompkins, Fuhlisher.
One of the most interesting and valnaUe books for general
reading ^er issued from our press — and the work of Mr. Whitte-
more'a most laborious life, and on which his reputation wiU
longest and most strongly rest. A copy should be in every Uni-
Teraaliat's library, and will prove most attractive to even the
joong, by its numerous biographic sketch<^. We shall look im-
pBtimtly for the second volume, which is soon to follow, and
which will contain the American portion of our history.
in. "The Anastasis of the Dead: or Philosophy of human
Immortality, as deduced from the teachings of the Scripture
Writers in rtference to the Besurrection, By Jason Lewis"
A, Tompkins, Publisher.
A very thorough and comprehensive work by a very close
precise and profound thinker and reasoqer. He leaves very little
lor a gleaner after him, and seldom allows his feelings or his
wishes to substitute fancy for fact, or the whisperings of imagina-
tion for the deductions of judgement. If he errs in any thing, it
is in being too precisely literal — ^like some of his punctuation ; he
attempts to be so exact as to be wrong sometimes — especially
in the use of parentheses and commas — so in his literaS^, he
does not reach the fuU meaning of the Scripture. But the
instances are few wherein we should feel willing to debate the
point with him. No man, be he Partialist or Universalist, can
read (and especially 9^^) this book without being greatly in-
structed by it — and what its author calls " the Gospel " must be
especially valuable to mourners and doubters, who seek ** strong
consolation." -
eo UNIVERSALIST COMPANION,
IV. " The Crown of Thorns ; a Token for the Sorrowing,
By E. K Ghapin.** A. Tompkins^ Publisher.
An improved, enlarged and much beautified edition of the most
popular and useful of Dr. Chapin's woiks. In typography, paper
and binding it is all that can reasonably be asked for; and in
contents, just the work needed by the mourner's heart and soul,
be the creed of the sorrowing what it may. Give or lend it
freely to the bowed down doubters and partialists around you,
and they will rise up and call you blessed.
V. ** Biblical Review : intended as a new and improved Com-
meniary on the BibUt Sc, on a plan that renders the book as
weU fked for reading as for reference. By Reo, W. E. Man-
ley." A. Tompkins, Publisher. •
The author's copy reached us too late for notice in our last,
(sines when a second edition has been printed,) but not too late
to give the work our earnest commendations as a valuable work
for instruction in the many difficulties which beset nearly every
curious mind in reading the Old Testament. The plcm of the
work, also, is quite original— it is a good reading book ; and there-
fore more satisfactory to common readers than a mere com-
mentary would be. We hope a large sale will induce the speedy
publication of other volumes on the remaining books of the
Hebrew Scriptures.
VL "An 'Oral Debate on the Coming of the Son of Man, End-
less Punishment, and Universal Salvation, held near Cincinnati,
0., between Erasmus Manford, of St. Louis, and Benfamin
F^nJdin, of CineinnatL Toti^kins, Publisher*
This reached us too late for even a hasty peruaal. The debaters
are both experienced, having written, preached and discussed
much on these subjects. Both are considered perfectiy capable
by theMketpective denominations — Universalistand (Campbellite,
or Reformert. The book is for sale, wholesale and retail, by Br.
Manford, at St Lonit, (who had it published by •ubsoription,) as
well as by Br. Tompkins.
07* We have thus noticed all books sent us for that purpose.
To secure perusal, books should reach us before July.

UNIYERSALIST COMPANION.
UNIVEBSALIST BELIEF.
llioiigh we embrace memben and preachers who widely differ
in many points of faith, and therefore reject all creeds and confes*
siona of faith as authoritative exponents of our sentiments, yet
there are a few points in which the whole denomination is agreed,
and several others in which we are generally, though not unani«
mously united in faith. The Supreme Court of New Hampshire
had decided that Universalists and Coneregationalists were one
denomination in law, and therefpre compelled our members to pay
taxes for the support of Congregpalionalist parishes. Our General
Convention wa8 compelled, in defense of its members in that State,
to make a General Profession of Faith to show the difference be-
tween its views and those of Congregational Churches. It was
carefuUy drawn, so that Universalists of all shades and varieties of
opinion might assent to it, and has never been changed in expres-
sion by any of our Churches adopting it, since its adoption in
1803. Here it is :
PBOFESSION OF BELIEF.
1. We believe that the Holy Scriptures of the Old and New
Testaments contain a revelation of the character of God, and of
the duty, interest, and final destination of mankind.
2. We believe there is one God, whose nature is love i revealed
in one Lord Jesus Christ, by one Holy Spirit of Grace, who will
finally restore the whole family of mankind to holiness and happi-
ness.
3. We believe that holiness and true happiness are inseparably
connected ; and tiiat believers ought to maintain order, and prac-
tice good works, for these things are good and profitable unto
men.
We may add, for greater explicithess required by some who
are curious in such matters, ana desire to know whether we do not
recognise differences in faitJi as a ground for differences in fellow-
ship, that all who believe in God as the Father of all, in Jesus as
the Saviour of all, in Heaven as the final Home of all, in the Bible
as the revelation of God's will to and for all, and in tb« c^ia^o^^isX
3
18 UNIVERSALIST COMPANION,
spiritual and everlasting brotherhood of all mankind, are Universal-
ists in faiih ; and those who conform their lives as far as possible
to this faith, by the invitation of God and Jesus in their love and
goodness to all, are Universalists in practice. And thus we hold
and fellowship them, whether they believe in future or no future
punishment, whether Trinitarians or Unitarians, whether Calvinis-
tic or Arminian in their views of the Divine Government, and
whatever their practice of forms and ceremonies, or their prefer-
ences for forms of Church government.
* The great idea that God is in Christ reconciling the world unto
himself — and that, whatever may be his chastisevients in this or
any other woild, he punishes only as a Father, and therefore for
the final benefit of the punished — this great idea, which leaves to
God his true character, to man his true relationship, and to the
issue of the Divine government its true end and aim — ^this great,
good, and Christianizing idea is Universalism. And its belief and
practice, conjoined in heart and life, constitutes a Universalist.
Whoso readeth, let him understand. A. b. a.
OURSELVES.
The political excitements and business embarrassments of last
fall and winter so lessened the sale of even the small edition of
this work, that the publisher was a loser, and feared that in the
greater excitement and harder times of this season he would not be
able to publish it at alL Believing our labors needed and useful, I
agreed to share his losses of last year, and edit this year for less
than half of what I should receive — or, in other words, I virtually
agreed to " work for nothing and find myself" this year — if he
would publish, and thus leave no gap in the series.
I am ill able (as is the publisher) to bear such loss. My in-
come is so cut down, that I am living in great part on my small
savings of former years. This, at my time of life and straitened
circumstances, is an unpleasant state of affairs. We may be
wrong in our estimate of the value of this work to the denomina-
tion ; but if we are not, it will gain more by the continuance of
the Register, than we shall probably lose. It only remains for us
to appeal to brethren and friends everywhere to do what they can
in furthering sales of the very small edition published this year,
and so make our losses as light as possible. Let each one do
BomeOwng toward it, and I d<iubt not encouragement mifficient will
be afforded to encourage us to resume our full proportions next
year. This unnatural rebellion cannot, surelyi endure beyond next
spring. A« B. G&OSH*
Marlettai August 1861.
AND ALMANAC FOR 1862. 19^
THANKS
To all who aided us by furniBhing matter in any form for our
little Annuid-^the more feryent, because the number has been
smaller than in previous years. We especially thank Br. Bur-,
rusa for statistics of all the Southern States, forwarded just in sea-
son to escape mail restrictions ; — also, to Br. W. S. Bacon, for his
sketch of the life of Bro. Parker, and Br. Edmunds for California
statistics.
The proofs have been delayed in some quarters, so as to delay
our publication, already delayed nearly a month beyond its usual
appearance. A. B. Geosh.
OXJR PERIODICALS
Need ipeoial exertions, in these ttmes for their support. Not only
eur prosperity as a denomination, but ** holding our own"— nay,
our very existence — depends on the continued diffusion of knowU •
edge among our people and their neighbors. Our doctrine is di-
vine light-— we are children of the light— and if that li^ht grows
dim we languish ; if extinguished^ we die. The pulpit is a great
enlightener, hut the preacher can extend his operations and in-
crease his diminished support, by increasing his places for preach-
ing—or, by changing his field of labor entirely, — or, at the worst,
by other means. But the paper is a fixture, and draws most of its
support from afar, and has no reliance but on the payments of sub-
scribers. Unless supported promptly, it involves its publisher and
editor in crushing debt ; and if not sufficiently supported must die
outright, leaving all its subscribers without the weekly or monthly
suppfy of fbod for mind and spirit — without the supply of ammu-
nition wherewith to put down the strongholds of error and of sin
within and around.
Let, then, every Universalist who happily can afford it, — and
many sueh have not taken any religious paper,— take a Universal-
ist paper, (or two or three if he can,) and pay promptly for the
same. lif he alr&ady does so, let him try ana procure subscriber*'
among thotfe who are remiss in this duty. Thus the places of those
who mus^— -and of that worse class, who isi2^— discontinue their
support or payment, may measurably be supplied, and all our
papers live through this rebellion.
Religious contributions— to pulpit and press — should be the last
items lopped off by retrenchment. Diet may be curtailed, with
gain to nealth in many cases. Dress can be less expensive and
» UNIVEB8ALIBT COMPANION.
mind and eyen appearance be benefitted. Habits that cost much,
should be cut ofi^ and much be saved in purse, health and morals.
But contributions for the support of the pulpit and the religious
Saper can rarely Tif erer) be curtailed witnout involving serious
etriment not only to soul, to morals, to mind to manners, and
thus, (at last when the circle of influences is run^) even to the
prosperity of the fismily and the man. All hands, then, support
your preachers and vour papers ! Pay, and pay promptly as pos*
sible, your reasonable dues. A. B. u.
LADIES' KEPOSITORT.
We have but one periodical especially devoted to the women of
our denomination — and that is not a news paper, and is a monthly
— so that I need not be accused of invidious partiality if I espe-
cially notice its recent change of Editors. Mrs. Sawyer, its present
Editor in chief, belongs to '' the days when we were yoimger than
now," and, som^ow, we think she has given new spirit and in-
creased excellence to our Ladies' Bepository. Moeh as it has im-
proved from year to year, oertainly this year it has taken more
than one step forward in improved contents. Let our noble-hesjrt-
ed Universaust women everywhere eiamine it, and aee if it is not
so, and give it increased encouragement by increasirtg its otroula-
tion and oiefolaets. ^ A. B. G.

OBITUARY RECORD.
Bev. SUoM Ewsdl, in East Dover, Me., May, 1860, aged 70 yean.
He was a very worthy, unassuming, and even retiring man— de-
lighting most to preach in secluded places, where there was little
pecuniary reward. His end was peace and joy.
Beo. A* J, Whiieside^ of brain fever, in Breese, RL, in August,
1860, aged 43 years. For many years he had been in the Baptist
ministrv i but about four years affo his faith was enlarged, and
from thenceforward he preached as he believed, universal sal-
vation from sin and death. He was a good man, and a faithful
minister.
Bev. Warren A. Baesett, in Marlboro, K. H., in August, 1860.
He was bom August- 7th, 1836, and early showeid a fondness for
reading, and became a marked scholar m the Sunday School. At
sixteen, he left the paternal roof to provide for himself, and over-
came the obstacles and difBculties of his, lone and destitute condi-
tion bravely and cheerAiUy. In the spring of 1858, he commenc-
ed studying for the ministry, under Rev. N. R. Wright, and
g reached soon after in Williamsville, Yt, half the time. In 1859,
e settled in Springfield, Yt, but soon after removed to Marlbo-
rough, where he ended his earthly^ life. He was regarded as a
young man of great moral and spiritual worth, noted for his gene-
al and accurate knowledge of tne Bible, and esteemed as a true
disciple of the Saviour.
Beo. PmA Bean, of paralysis, in Framingham, Mass., Octobe
5, 1860, aged about 77 years. Though he left us for the "Reiito-
rationist Association," years ago, yet he commenced his ministry
in our denomination, in Yermont, and received our fellowship in
1805— preached extensivclv in Yermont and New Hampshire, and
removed to Whitestown, JS. Y., in 1810, He traversed frequently
62 UNIVERSALIST COMPANION,
large portions of Central and Western New York, and held several
successful discussions — two,particularly, with Rev. Mr. Lacy, then
k Methodist, afterwards an Episcopalian Bishop. He removed to
Boston in 1818, and in 1823 his friends left the First Church, and
built for him the church in Bulfinch street, now Unitarian. About
1828 he withdrew from our fellowship, and, with a few others,
formed the " Massachusetts Kestorationist Association." On its
decline, he left Boston, and settled in Framingham in 1840. He
officiated for the last time at the funeral of Nathaniel Wright, last
fall, also formerly a Universalist preacher, and once settled in Cen-
tred New York. Mr. Dean was not profound, but easy and ready
— attractive and winning in appearance, voice and manner — an
eloquent and popular preacher, For many years he was an active
Freemason, and held, during the greater part of his manhood, the
highest offices of that Order in the United States. He leaves a
widow and two daughten in comfortable circumstances.
Bet. /. Am AspinwaU, of dysentery, at Nunda, N. Y., October
24, 1860, aged 47 years. His. illness was.long and painful, but his
patience was strong, and his death serene and peacefuL Br. As-
pinwall was bom and reared in Henderson, Jefferson County, N.Y.
Ue embraced Universalism in his youth, under the preacbine of
Rev. Pitt Morse, and after due study, entered the Mmistry when
about 22 years old. He was settled, at various times, in Leyden,
Braman's Comers, South Harford, Fort Ann, Saratoga, Schenec-
tady, Clintcn, Cooperstown, Rome and Nunda. For about two
years he was the Principal of the Clinton Liberal Institute, and at
nis decease held the office of Standing Clerk of the New York
State Convention. Br. Aspinwall was grave, yet pleasant and
amiable, with much natural dignity and modesty. Very conscien-
tious, firm, active, and persevering, he was generally highly es-
teemed, and was an able preacher and a beloved pastor.
Bee. E. C Bogen, at Hingham, Mass., Nov. 11th, 1860, aged 44
years. While a Baptist preacher in Southington, Ct., in 1842, he
was converted to Universalism, and soon after entered its minis-
try and was successively settled in Taunton, Foxboro' and West
Wrentham, Mass. Failing health compelled him to cease preach-
ing, and he commenced practising medv^ine In Boston, aut in-
creasing illness finally compelled removal to Hingham, where he
passed away. Ever active in all reforms, his last words to his
family, as he sunk in death on his wife's bosom, were—" Be trae
to God, to humanity, and to each other." He was a good man,
and a devoted lover of our race.
Bev. John Eenrff lyson, in Belvidere. BL, March 16, 1S61, in
the 90th year of hu age. He was bora in Germany, and early in
AND ALBIANAC FOR 1862. 68
life embraced Methodism, of which he subsequently bccftone a
preacher, and travelled through Denmark to En^iana. Here his
preaching caused his arrest, and, after brief imprisonment, he was
fined lightly. He returned to Germany, and went to Africa.
About 30 years ago he came to America, and settled in Canada —
thence to New York— thence to Illinois. He performed much
arduous inissionary labor in Canada and New York, for which he
receiyed but trifling pecuniary com^nsation. About ten yeaxu
ago a Universalist preached in his neighborhood, and Father Tyson
went to the meeting to refute the " heresy ;" but was himself over-
come by the truth that God's love will overcome the sin of the
world. From that day until his death, he rejoiced in the fulness
of faith, even amid all the pain and suffering of the rheumatic af-
fections which attended his declining years. He desired renewed
health and strength, onl^ that he might proclaim to others the un-
searchable riches of Christ which filled nis own soul with glad-
ness. His departure was peaceful and joyous ; for he was a good
man, and full of faith and love.
Bev. James Monroe^ in Suisan Valley, California, March 20,
1861, aged 89 years. He was a graduate of Yale College, a
zealous, devoted lover of the truth '* that maketh free indeed,"
and died in Uie foU enjoyment of his faith in a glorious immor-
tality for the whole family of heaven and earth.
Rev. Danxei Parker, near New Richmond, Ohio, March 22,
1861, in the 80th year of his a^e. '* He was born in Newbury-
nort, Mass., Aug. 7, 1781. His parents were Presbyterians, and
his early religious training was in accordance with that school of
theology. In 1798, h's parents removed to Marietta, O., — and in
1802 to the southern part of Alleghany County, Pa. Here he be-
came acquainted with the members of a religious society known
as ** Harcyonists,'' teaching that all men are mortal, and only those
who exercise faith in Christ and live accordingly, will the resurrec-
tion trump awake from the dead. It was held that an endless
sleep was more benevolent and rational than continued existence
in sm and suffering. Mr. Parker embraced these views, became
a member of the Society, and a public advocate of the doctrine.
But even such a destiny for a large portion of the human race,
did not satisfy the'longings of his soul. He acaepted it only as a
refuge from the horrid dogma which consigns to nopeless dcspdr
and unmitigated suffering the same number. His mind was
travellin^^, as well as his body, in search of a congenial home, and
ere long it found <* that house not made with hands,'* where all
who ** have borne the image of the earthly shall also bear the im-
Bfe of the hf^aveuly." He called the sentiment ' the final Kestora-
taon of all things through Christ to God,' and first publicly pro-
54 UNIVERSALI8T COMPANION,
claimed the same at Alexandria, (near where Portsmonth, O., now
stands,) in 1814. His text was — 'I, also, will shew you mine
opinion.'
This, probably, was the first sermon on '* the great salvation "
ever preached in Ohio. During the same year his voice was heard
in the Market- house in Cincinnati, with a butcher's block for his
pulpit. Holding the Gospel to be the free gift of Ood, he asked
no pay for proclaiming ic ; hence he labored through the week for
the food that perisheth, and on Sundays ministered tliat "which
Cometh down from heaven and giveth life to the world." We doubt
whether any man since the Reformation has performed more labor
in the Gospel vineyard, and received less material pay.
** He was married in 1816, and soon after settlea upon a small
farm on the banks of the Ohio, two miles above New lUchmond,
where he resided till his decease. He never sought or obtained
the formal fellowship of the Universal denomination, preferring
to be called a Restorationist ; but differed from them in opinion
no more than they do from each other. His life was above re-
proach— ^his zeal in the Master's cause knew no abatement — and
nis great aim was to persuade men to lead religious lives. He was
a thorough Temperance and Anti-slavery advocate. Thus did he
live — battling for the right ; working to overth]*ow wrong. And
thus did he die — fully and firmlv believing that in God's own
time and way, aU shall be taught of Him, and render willing obe-
dience to His moral Government. w. s. B."
' JReo. Thomas Whittemoret D, i>., in Cambridgeportp Mass.,
March 21 st, 1861, in his 62d year. He was bom in Boston, Jan-
uary 1, 1800. His father was a baker, and the son's earliest labors
were in that line. At the age of 14, after his father's death, he
was bound apprentice, successively, to a Morocco-dresser, a brass-
founder, a shoemaker, and a bootmaker. In Theology, as in busi-
ness, he was yet " unfitted with an aim." His parents were mod-
erate Calvinists, and educated him accordingly ; but the son early
attached himself, first to a Universalist, then to a Baptist, and
affain to a Universalist choir, — ^the last in Father Balloa'a church,
where his tendency to skepticism was checked, and he became a
confirmed convert.. Encouraged by Mr. Ballou, he commenced
writing for the *' Universalist Magazine," and finidly tamed hii
wishes towards the ministry— -commencing and pursuing Ids ata-
dies in that direction under his pastor's instructions. He preach*
ed his first sermon (in clothes borrowed for the occasion, being too
poor to provide otherwise !) before he was free from hit appren-
ticeship, December 10, 1820. He settled in Mdford, in 1821, where
he married his now surviving partner in the same year. In 1822,
he became pastor of the Church in Cambridgeport, in which office
1* eontinvted nine years, and continued to reside there during
AND ALMANAC FOR 1862. 55
life. ' About the same time he was associated with Hosea Ballou
and Hosea Ballou 2d, as editors of the ^ Universalist Magazine."
In 1828, he commenced the '* Trumpet," with Sebastian and Rus-
sell Streeter, as Associate Editors, and continued to edit it until
near the close of his life — preaching, meanwhile, regularly, to va-
rioua aocieties in the yidnitjr, and frequently, when on excursions,
in distant places. In addition to editing and preaching, he rcn*
dered mucn ciTic service in town and State, as Selectman, Presi-
dent of a Bank, Director of one, and President of two Railroads,
and in the State Legislature. And besides all this, he wrote and
miblished a number of volumes, the principal of which are, " Mo-
dem History of Uniyersalism," — the second edition in two toI-
nmes; " Notes on the Pnrables," " Plain Guide to Universalism,"
** Commentary on Rerelations," (the only clear, simple and con-
ristent one we have ever seen or heard of,) '* Life and Writings of
Hosea Ballou," in 4 volumes, a labored and valuable work ; ** Au-
tobiogpraphy," a very interesting volume, two volumes of Church
Music, and a number of minor works. He was, emphatically,
a fetsi and a hard worker in whatever he undertook — ^more earnest
than profound, and too earnest and direct to be finished or pol-
ished. H|s mind seemed never at rest ^ As an editor, his arti-
cles were pointed and seasonable. Universalism was, to him, the
Alpha and Omeea. He defended it on all occasions, never swerv-
ing to the right hand or to the left, but moving onward triumph-
antlv in his course as an able defender of the faith of the saints.'*
^ His pulpit ministrations gave general satisfaction." '* Of a ge-
nial temperament, a ready wit, and a never-failing flow of spirits;
fall of the love of God and man ; widening out his sympathies
until they reached to all classes ; such a man could not but make
a permanent mark on the age and the times." He was struck
with paralysis more than a year before his decease, but recovered
again to labor ; and about four months before his final departure,
was reduced to dying, in his own estimation, and that of all who
beheld him. But then, as in bis last illness and actual dying, his
feith ever sustained, consoled, and gladdened his soul, and made
his death the triumph-field of his departing spirit.
Sev. A9a Upwn, at Steven's Mills, Steuben Co., N. Y., April
27, 1861, aged 70 years. We have been furnished with no details
of Father Upson's early life, religious experience, or early minis-
try. We first find his name, and address at Hornellsville, in the
Begiiter of 1839 — and remember seeing it in our periodicals some
ten yean earlier. It is probable that he travelled and preached
eoniuderably in his section, at that time ; but in later years, his
time was mainly devoted to his immediate vicinity and his farm .
Hw fkith he so lon^ preached to others, was his abiding support
ttd joy in the closing years of his life.
56 UNIVERSALIS! COMPANION.
Bev. Hosea BaUou, D. 2>., First President of T^ifU Collem
gently passed away, in despite of severe pain from diaeHe of ua
kidneys, in Somerville, Mass., May 27, 1861, in the 66th year of
his age. No death in our ranks has excited deeper sorTOW, or will
be longer felt than his. " Cousin Hosea,** as he was loTinfflv—H
" Hosea Ballon 2d,'' as he was usually — ^called, to distinffuian hii_
from his eminent grand-uncle, (the " 2d " bein^ uiea in New
England somewhat .as our " Jr."), was bom in Guilford, Vt., Oct.
18, 179G. His early love of study led to his instruction in Latin
by Hev. Mr. Wood, and at school at Halifax Centre, where hie pa-
rents then resided. His parents were Bapiipts, but the studioui
and thinking boy at sixteen or seventeen, turned his attention to
Universalism, and soon afterwards embraced it with hie whole
mind and heart His first settlement was in Stafford, (X, where
he remsdned four or five years.* In 1821, he settled in Roxbury,
Mass, where he was pastor seventeen years. " The beaut;^ of the
Sastor's life, his spirit of peace, his discreetness and quietness,
rew many to him"— even of the elder cler^ of other denomina-
tions. In May, 1822, he was associated with the senior Hosea
Ballou and Thomas Whittemore in editing the " Universalist
Magazine," — a trio united in that work for several years. About
this period he prepared and published his '* Ancient History of
Universalism," a standard work for its great research, oorrectnest
of statement, and purity of style. In 1830, in connexion with his
uncle, he projected and commenced the " (Jniversalist Expositor,'*
which he edited for many years with great abilitr under that title,
and as the " Universalist Quarterly." In 1837 he published '* A
Collection of Psalms and Hymns," which was favorably received.
In 1838, he settled as pastor in Medford, where, also, he remained
about seventeen years. In 184(3, his well-known attainments pro-
cured from Harvard University, (of which he was a Trustee for
several years,) its honorary degree of D. D. When Tufts College
was contemplated, his mind was most relied on to arrange plans
for operation ; and when it was completed he was elected its i^rea-
ident, and entered upon its duties in 1845, after travelling a year
in Eurone, the better to fit himself for the station, which lie lo
ably and satisfactorily filled until his decease.
His scholarship was not only general and varied, bat exact in
details, and frequently astonishing by its minute acquaintance
with things and events out of ordinary channels of information %
and his knowledge was so unostentatiously held, and kindljr and
modestly imparted, that it required special enquiry to elieit it, and
seemed but naturai to him. His compositions are remariutblj
clear and pure in style, yet occasionally flashing a pleasant wit
and quiet humor, which amuses even those wnoae fanlta it re-
bukes and whose oi)]nions it opposes. His gentle mannersi and
readiness to impart information, and his mild and loving spixit,

Ite. Eemy A* Sakm^ of pulmonary consumption, in Worces-
ter, ICaas., Haf 26th, 1861, m the 86tii year of nis age. He was
born in South' Reading, Mass., Nov. 27, 1825, the youngest of
aeren children, and lost ms mother at an early age. He was an
apt scholar ; but at sixteen was compelled to earn his livelihood,
which he did by serving in a store for two years ; then went into a
ahoe store, with an older brother, and subsequently set up for him-
aelf in the same business, in Newburyport, where nis brother. Rev.
E. A. Eaton, then resided. With the encouragement of that broth-
er, he commenced preparations to enter the ministry, and quit se-
eolar employments. He spent a brief period in Dr. Sawyer's
Theological Class in Clinton, N. T., for his studies were mainly
woeeeuted with his brother, until he preached his first sermon*
He first settled in Hanson, Mass., for one year ; then at East
Bridgewater for about the same time; then in Milford several
jean ; then in East Cambridge, two years ; then in Waltham, a
— r ; and last in Meriden, Conn. Overworking, and ii^jured
ilth, compelled most of these changes; for in each place he
I much esteemed for his labors, and beloved by those wno knew
him. The illness and decease of his beloved wife, at East Cam-
bridge, and his devoted attention to her, day and night, exhausted
Ida vital powers bevond recuperation, and bronchitis, followed by
hemorrhage from the lung^, finally compelled him to abandon the
aainistry. He retired to Worcester, and engaged in business for
the support of himself and children — battling manfully with va-
riona oifficnlties. Having provided for his little oneS| and arrang-
ed all his afikirs, he calmly met death, and serenely went up
higher — Home! — sustained in his last hours, as he had been guided
and ^vemed in life, b^r an unfaltering trust in God as the Father,
and in Jesus as the Saviour of mankind.
Beo. Samud Ooff^ of small-pox, at Farmington Falls, Me., July
29th9 1861, aged 60 years. He was bom in Ludlow, VL, May 5,
1811 — educated through his own unaided endeavors, at Duttons-
yille Academy — and preached his first sermon in Fulton, N. Y.,
July 2, 1837 — settled in Alexander in 1838 — was fellowshiped by
the Genesee -Association in 1839, and ordained in 1840. For
nearly 20 years he continued in Western New York, preaching
zegohrlyy generally three sermons every Sabbathi and frequently
6
year;

lecturing on iKek-day evenings in the yidnitf of his residence —
sometimes on five evenings in the week. He also wrote consider-
ably and acceptably for our periodicals. In 1855, he went to New
England, and finally settled as pastor of the Society in Saco and
Biddeford, Me., where be remained until 1858, when he removed
to Essex, Mass. After about a year he returned to Maine, preach-
ed one year in Winthrop, and then removed to Farmington Falls,
where he bought a "home** on the banks of the Sandy Biver, hoping,
with his imnroved health, to abide man^f years witn his family a^
friends. He had just returned from a visit to New York, when he
was attacked with illness, which proved to be small-pox, and ter-
minated in his death. He was married twice, and leaves a wife
and two children to mourn their loss of a kind and excellent bus-
band and father.
One who knew him in early and in latter years, says — ''I have
seldom known a purer minded Christian than Br. Qoff.... Uni-
formly studious, tnougbtful, and perfectly correct in deportment,
• . . .though fond of company, and keenly relishing the innocent
pleasures incident to sucn a gathering of blithe young spirits, he
was never known to utter a word, or to countenance an act» not
strictly in accordance with either the rules of the school, or the
most exact propriety.'' '* Since the renewal of that early ac-
quaintance, I have been much in his society,... .and I have
never been intimate with one possessed, as it seemed to me, of
a finer spirit or of a purer heart. Humble, truthful, conscien-
tious ana simple in habits and tastes, he has always appeared
to me a living exemplification of the Christian spirit^ Br.
Goff was a good writer and instructive preacher. His voice,
which was almost a treable, and rather weak, detracted fh)m
his efforts in speaking; but those who looked beyond that, to
the matter ana the spirit, were pleased with his pulpit efforts.
He was too sensitive for the hardships of a minister's eareer,
and probably lacked that robust energy and persistance whic^
are necessary to success. But in him we have lost a good and
useful man and preacher— one whose example was a strong proof
of the sincerity and purity of his faith in universal salvatioa from
sin.

Sei^^eant Needham, the first man (of Masachusetts Volunteers)
who fell a martyr in the Union cause by the secession mob in
Baltimore, April 19th, 1861, was a worthy member of the Uniyer-
•aEst Churoh in Lawrence, Mass.
Thus, on eyery side Uniyersalists haye been among those who
haye borne testimony, " striving unto blood,** against the sin of
lebellion against Law, Liberty and Union, with its attendant per-
Juriety robberies and assassinations — ^its piracy and mnrders.
LADIES' REPOSITORY.
YOLTJHE XXX. — HEW SEBIES YOLTJHE II
The Thirtieth Tolume of the Ladies* Repositost oommenoed with
the number for July, 1861. The Editorial Ilepartment will be oonduoi-
MRS. CAROLINE M. SAWTEB,
A18I8TKD BT
MRS. C. A. SOULE HOLCOMB AND MISS MINNIE S. DAVIS.
Mrs. S. is too well known to need any commendation from us. Mrs.
Livermore, the assistant editor of the " New Covenant,** says of her:—
** Mrs. Sawyer is without question, pre-eminent above all other female
writers in our ranks, as a literary woman. She has talent, scholar-
ship, taste and a love of literature and literary labor, all of which she will
brinf? to her new work. She is to be ably seconded by a corps of con-
tributors. Mrs. C. A. Soule Halcomb, of Boonsboro', Iowa, will re-
tain her connection with the Magaxine, wh)ch gives it a claim on West-
ern women."
Miss Minnie S.'Davis will become Assistant Editor. Miss Davis is the
author of *' Marion Leeter *' and '* TheiHarvest of Love," and is well
known to the readers of the Repository by her many excellent contribu-
tions during the past three years.
With this trio of Editors, aided by a host of Contributors and Corres-
pondents, the Repository will rank among the first Magazines in this
country.
It has been deemed advisable to omit the Juvenile department, but
this will not prevent the publication of good Juvenile Stories occasion-
ally.
The new volume will contain a much larser amount of reading, as
the type will be set solid, the space between the lines being omitted.
It will continue to be a medium for the choice productions of our
female writers, while it will also contain good articles on moral and
religious topics from many of our clerncy and laymen.
The Repository will be made a real HOME COMPANION, combining
the substantial thoughts of our ablest minds, with the lighter reading
of our best story writers.
The form of Uie Repository will be the same as during the past year,
thus making a uniformity in the New Series, which commenced with
the last (twenty-ninth) volume. Each number will contain forty-
eight double-column octavo pages of solid reading matter, making
fTvE hundred and SEVMtT-SIX pages at the close of the
volume.

PROPOSAL
TO ENLARGE THE COMPANION AND BEGI8TER.
For years, I have omitted statistics carefully collected, for want
of room, and desired more room for interesting and useful reading
matter. For years I have felt that a denomination of readers, as
large and wealthy as ours, should have a larger Register, not to
Bay a better one. But publisher and other friends discouraged en-
largement, as involving increased price, and therefore fewer sales,
and lessened usefulness to the cause, and loss to me. Notwith-
standing all this, (and the losses of past three years liave reduced
my receipts to less than 1 should have received for one yearns la-
bor,) I have resolved to ask our public — Will you not sustain me
if I increase the size and price of our Register , and thus increase its
interest and usefulness ?
By doubling its number of pages, I more than double its statisti-
cal and general reading, for the title, business notices, and almanac
room will remain the same, and the price will only be two-thirds
greater, provided as many copies can be sold as heretofore. Thus,
for instance, if encouraged, I will begin a new series of the •' Uni-
versalist Register," next year, to contain 120 pages instead of CO
— say 18 for Almanac, notices, Jbc.; 40 pages, instead of 30, for
statistics ; and 62 pages, instead of 12 — ot Jive times as many —
for Biographic sketches of deceased preachers and ^inent laymen,
and for the best doctrinal and practical articles, anecdotes, ^., I
can procure or prepare. And the prices will only be 20 cents sin-
gle, or six copies for one dollar, (even when sent by mail, postage
prepaid,) and in proportion by the dozen, hundred and thousand
copies.
Will not our editors, ministers, and other active brethren inter-
ested in this desirable change, give us their views in our papers
before next spring ? I can ill afford further losses, but am willing
to risk some for the sake of increased benefit to our cause, credit to
our denomination, and a reasonable prospea of benefit to myself.

UNIVERSALIST COMPANION.
PROFANITY.
The abeardity and criminality of profane language, is very qai-
ctly exposed in the following anecdote of revolationary times :
At the close of the rcYolutionary war, a number of military offi-
cers dined at Col. P *8. One of them in telling an anecdote of
Banker Hill battle, mixed in mani^ foolish and wicked oaths.
When he had finished. Col. P said, '* Col. Tarlton was a smart
oflicer, you know, but vain of his exploits — bottle and tongs. He
once said to a young lady of South Carolina — ^071^5 and bottle — he
wished Uttle tongs and little bottle — he could see that famous Major
Washin^n— ^efl< tongs and great bottle. The lady answeredf—
* Yuu might have seen him — three pair of tongs — if you had fiiced
abont at the battle of Cowpens.* "
<* That*s a good story. Colonel, but you spoiled it with ' bottle
and tongs ;* what has that to do with the story. Colonel ? **
The Colonel replied : ** 0 ! I used those words in the place of
oaths. I think they have full as much sense in them, ana for me
they are rather easier spoken ! "
A general officer, who was early in life much addicted to profane
oaths, dated his reformation from a memorable check he received
from a Scottish clergyman. When he was lieutenant, and settled
at Newcastle, he got involved in a brawl with some of the lowest
class in the public street ; and the altercation was carried on by
both parties, with abundance of impious language. The clergy-
man passing by, shocked with the profanity, and stepping into the
crowd with his cane uplifted, thus addressed one of the leaders of
the rabble : ** 0, John, John ! what is this I hear? you, only a
poor collier boy, and swearing like any lord in the land. It may
do very well for this gallant gentleman, (pointing to the Lieuten-
ant,) to bang and swear as he pleases, but you — you, John! it is
not for you, or the like of you, to take in vain the name of Ilim
in whom ye live and have your being." Then turning to the Lieu-
tenant he continued, '* You'll excuse the poor man, sir, for he is
an ignorant body, and kens nae better." The young officer shrunk
away in confusion, unable to make any reply. Next day he wait-
ed on the minister, and thanked him sincerely for his well-timed
leproof^ and was ever after, an example of correctness of language.
18 UNIVERSALIS! COMPANION,
Mrs. A. is well known as one of those malignant Christians who,
as Hood says, '* think they^re pious when the^^re only billions,"
and who furnish their highest evidence of religion by perpetually
recommending it to other people as if it wore an article they wish-
ed to dispose of, to keep it from spoiling. Brown was asked if he
didn't think she was *' deeply pious." *• Yes," said Brown, "her
piety is so deqi> that I never oouid see any bottom to it /"
Some time since a Catholic serrant girl stole a lot of siWer
spoons from a Protestant preacher in whose family she was a ser-
vant. A correspondence sometking like the foUowing ensued :
To the Protestant Preacher: I send year spoons back. If your
■ervant giri had been a Protestant, you never would have got them
again, loars. Catholic Pmist.
To the CathoHe Priest ; I thank you for the spoons. If the ser-
Tant had been a Protestant, she riever ufould have stolen them.
Yours, Protestant Prsachxr.
A certain good-natured old farmer preserved his constant good-
nature let wmit would turn up. One day while the black tongue
prevailed, he was told that on« of his red oxen vras dead.
*' Is he? " said the old man, ** well, ha was ahraysabreechy old
fellow. Tkke off his hide and tajie it down to Fletcher's ; it wiU
bring the cash."

Rev. Dr. B , of Philadelphia, is noted for brief, sententious
■syingB in the pulpit and out of it. As he was coming down
Ohestnat street, the other day, a gentleman asked him, ** mr, can
yon tell me how to find the sheniTs office?" "Yes, sir," was
the reply, ** every Hme you earn five dollars spend ten," Saying
tfatfL he walked on, leaving his questioner gaping upon the side-
walk. He was a stranger who bad come to town on business, and
asked for information, but the more he pondered, the more he was
convinced that his unknown informant had answered him wisely.

Rev. AsuER A. Davis, died in Sunbarv, 0., July 18, 1861, aeed
about 50 years. His name first appeared in our Register for 1836,
residence unknown. In 1837 — 39, he was located in Sunbury, 0.
In 1840, in Marion, 0. In 1841—44, in Danvers, Mass. He re-
moved to Providence in 1844, and for a short time edited the *' Gos-
pel Messenger.*' In 1845—50 he was at Glenn's Falls, N. Y. In
1850, in Iowa City, Iowa ; and in 1851, in Zanesville, 0. About
this time, under the pressure of disease and other afflictions, he
united with the Lutherans ; after which we lost siglit of him. But
we learn from his family that of late years, his foith in God w *' the
Saviour of all men," was resumed and strengthened unto death.
Uis physical frame was delicately framed and nervously sensitive.
Resr. Otis A. Skiknbr, D. D., bom in Royalton, Vt., JuW 3,
1807. died in Naperville, 111., (while there on an exchange,) ^ept.
18, 1861, aged 54 years. When 19 years of age, Dr. Skinner com-
menced teaching school in Lempster, N. H., and preaching on Sun-
days there and m the vicinity. In 1828, he settled in Westmore-
land, preaching half the time in Jaffrey. In 1829, he removed to
Wobum, Mass., and to Baltimore in 1831, where for some years
he edited the ** Southern Pioneer." In 1836, he returned to New
£nzland, and settled in Haverhill, Mass., where he edited the
** Gospel Sun." About this tune the Fifth Universalist Society
was ornmized in Boston, and in 1837 he became its pastor, and
under his care it became a large and strong organization. In 1842 he
wrote and published ** Universalism Illustrated and Defended," —
in 1843 his " Book of Prayer," — and in 1844, in company with
Bev. E. H. Chapin, he commenced editing the <* Gospel Miscellany."
A)K>ut this period he also wrote several works for Snnday Schools,
aod edited a new and improved edition of Balfour's First and Sec-
ond Inauiries. In 1846 be removed io New-York and became pas-
tor of tne Orchard-street Chureh. In 1848, he accepted the agen-
cy to raise the funds for establishing Tufts College, in which he
labored with much zeal and success for several years. In 1849 he
returned to the pastorship of the Fifth Church in Boston, where
be remained until 1857, when with his brotlicrs he removed to the
West, and settled in Elgin, Kane county, Dl. But he was soon
called to the Presidency of Lombard University, and the pastorship
of the Chureh in Galesburg. Here he received the degree of Doc-
tor of Divinity. In 1860, the death of his brother, Rev. Samnel P.
22 UNIVERSALIS! COMPANION,
Skinner, and the condition of that brother ^s cetate, constrained his
resignation of the Preeidencj of the UniTcrsity, and he subeeqiient-
\j became the pastor of the Society in Joliet. Here he labored,
not only in attention to his brother's estate, and as pastor, but.
preachra frequently — too frequently in Tari<3us places in the vicin-
ity— sometimes four sermons in a day. This constant wear of
mind and body in cares and labors, gradually weakened and under-
mined a strong frame and hardy constitution, so that when disease
. came, there was not vital power left to rally aoainst it. His death
was an exemplification of the faith he had so ably preached — calm,
peacefiil, loving and happy. Dr. Skinner was eminently a perse-
vering, steady student and worker — pleasing in person, manners
and voice, and pure in speech and life, he was popular as a preach-
er, and belovecl ss a pastor and friend, and in all the relations of
social and domestic lite.
Bev. Amos A. Richabds, died in Milo, Me., Sept. 24, 1861, aged
61 years. His death was caused by iiyuries on his head, received
two years before. He failed gradually, and was insane a portion
of the time ; but when rational, he was ever patient and resigned.
He had been actively en^ged in the ministrv for many years, hav-
ing been fellowshipped in 1829, and resided in Parkman, at least
from 1835 to 1839--then in Milo until 1844, when we find him
X* tered in Prospect until 1846, when he is roistered in Licoln-
until 1850, when he is again in Milo, where he resided until
his decease. He was a worthy man and preacher, and esteemed by
all who knew him.
Rev. Jossrn Ward, bom in Hebron, Washington county, N. T..
Feb. 21, 1795, died m East-Randolph, Wis., Oct. 2, 1861, aged 66
years. Educated in the Calvinistic faith, he sufiered intenselv from
Its *' Five Points," and would gladly have exchanged his cnances
with the beasts that perish. Wnen 17 years old he became satisfi-
ed that OEdvinism was false, and for two years tried to believe
Methodinn, but fiiiluig, he became an avowed skeptic for four
years. After his marriage, the contest of doubt and laith was re-
newed with increased intensity, and resulted in belief in Cbristiaii-
iiy as a revcdaticMi of the fiitherhood of God and the salvation of
aU souls ; and immediately he b^an to spread his views abroad.
But when charged with believing ■< Universalism," ho indiipiantlj
denied the charge ! As soon, however, as he ascertained what
« Universalism" really was, which he learned from " Ballou on
Atonement," he cheerfully assumed the name, and welcomed its
reproach ; and shortly after (in 1824) preached his first sermon in
the school-house of his native district. A Baptist challaoged him
to preach on Matt. xxv. 46, in an a^oining district, which he did
in presence of about 400 persons, including two Partialist dergj-
men and their deaconsL As he oonduded, lie gaye liber^ to any

one to speak^ which being unaccepted, he invited the dergrmen by
name, when they refused. Ab the congr^ation was dismififled one
;>f the deacons asked his minister what ne thought of the sermon,
und was answered, ** the devil helped him — theSevil helped him !"
Bat the deacon declared it to be the first intelligible exposition
he had ever heard of the subject, and stepping up to the young
preacher, said, " Friend Ward, you can preach and you must
preach !" And thenceforward ne did preach, far and near. In
1826, be received the fellowship of the Goieral Convention, and
was ordained at its next session, in 1827. His labors now extend-
ed into Canada-£ast. In 1828, he settled in Barnard, Yt. In
1832, he was located at Lenoxville, C. £ , and preached half the
time on a circuit of 70 miles. In 1848 he returned to the States,
and after a winter spoit in Ohio, removed to Wisconsin, where he
has been an active missionary, depending mainly lor tne support
of his fiunily on the cultivation of a few acree of land which he
owned. In 1857, a stroke of palsy impaired his speech and en-
feebled his frame. Since then, he has declined gradually. In
September, 1861, he bad another attack, and sufiered intensW for
some weeks — but his departure was easy, and be went cheeriully.
Father Word vras a man of great energy and activity, oumbined
with due prudence and consideration. He leaves a wife (bis sec-

Rev. J. Urner Price, died Oct. 4, 1861, of a wound received the
moeding day in the reconnoisonee at Cheat Mountain, Va., aged
25 years, leaving a trulv widowed wife. He was a graduate of
Union College. While be and his wife wore conducting an Acad-
emy at Urbana, Dl., he became converted from Methodism to Uni-
veraalism, under the j)rcaching of Rev. T. C. Eaton, and shortly
slier entered our ministry, receiving our fellowship in 1860. He
tettled in Terre Haute, and soon necame an eloquent preacher.
^ His whole soul was enlisted in behalf of the principles embodied
in the Declaration of Independence, and when this wicked and ao-
eoTsed rebellion broke out, and the President issued his proclama-
tion, calling fbr 75,000 volunteers, Mr. Price promptly left the sa-
cred desk, where he was rapidly rising in popular favor, to respond
to the call of his bleeding country, and enlisted as a private in the
14th Indiana I^giment. And when, upon the expiration of the
three months' service, the call was renewed for the war, he, with
his entire Regiment, gallantly responded, and were soon ordered
to Western Virginia, whore he so gloriously fell." He was pro-
moted to be first sergeant of Co. fi. of the regiment, and by his
dieerful Activity in service and his Christian deportment, won the
eonfidence, esteem and love of his fellow officers and soldiers. His
thigh was shattered by a minnie ball, and thou[|^h amputation was
resorted to, he died the next day — in the morning otiife, of use-
nhiess, and of honor — beloved warmly as a minister and a man. ^

masonic honors, and two Methodist clergymen assisted in the fune-
ral services.
Rev. TiiEODORK Harbinq died in Troy, Mc., Jan. 8, 1862, aged
76 years, leaving a wife and ten children. His name first appears
in our Register lor 1850, as a new preacher in our ministry — a con-
vert from a Pftrtialist ministry — ^located at Dizmont, Me., where
we find him put down to the present year- Though not officially
fellowshippcd, he alwavs had the confidence and ^ood will of the
denomination as a worthy and useful man and minister.
Rev. Justus Todd, bom in Vermont, May 5, 1785, died in El-
lington, N. Y., February 27, 1862, in his 77th year. He was the
son Of a close-communion Baptist preacher, and united with that
Church at 22 years of aee. In 1825 he embraced Universalism,
and soon afler commenced preaching it, but was not ordained until
1834. He located at Ellicottville in 1832, where he resided until
1850, when he removed \o Ellington-Centre, where he died. He
had buried 7 children — his first wife died in 1824, and his second
in 1858 — the first was sick eight years, and the second was help-
less for more than six years before her death, fjither Todd hin^
self was in feeble health ever since 1850 — in 1852 he was proetrat-
ed with hip disease, and so continued feeble until his decease. He
leaves several children. His confidence in the Gospel of life and
immortality for all, continued strong in all his trials and aflUctiona.
Rev. Luaus Austin Spencer, of Lempeter, N. H., died in the
military hospital at Concord, N. H., March 31, 1862, aged 33 years.
Through great labor and trials he prepared himself to enter the
ministry, and preached to good acceptance. But feeble health pre-
vented his devotine his entire time to his profcsvion. And wnen
his country called her sons to preserve its government a^d its life,
he felt it his dutv to enter the army. But typhoid iever soon end-
ed alike his military and his earthly career. That resignation
which only aaeurance of iaith can give, was his during his illnesB
and dying.

Rev. J. S. Phklps, of Oaneyville. Ky., fell ou Shiloh's blopdy

Welsh's Creek, Ky. lie continued in that State, sometimes itine-
eratin^ on a largo circuit, until the outbreak of this rebellitm,
whcnne volunteered his services at his country *s call, and was
chosen Captain of a company in a Kentucky Regiment.
Rev. Setb Jonss, died at Sackett's Harbor, N.T., June 2, 1862.
Speaking of the annual session of the Western (now Central) Asso-
ciation, held at New-Hartford, N. Y., in 1813, Rev. S. R. Smith, in
bis *^ Historical Sketches," says — << At this session * Letters of Fel-
lowship ' were granted to S. Jones, J. Gowdy, S. Miles and S. R.
Smith, as preachers of the everlasting Gospel. Mr. Jones had
been a Baptist preacher some twelve years; and had already preached
the Restitution for a season when he received the fellowship of the
Association. He was profoundly destitute of that species ot knowl-
edge derived from books, but rossessed a remarkable fluency in the
delivery of his discourses. His mind was strong and clear, and his
language — which frequently defied all grammatical rules — rolled on
in one steady and unbroken current from the beginning to the end
of his sermons. He was perfectly enamored of the doctrine of il-
limitable f^ce, and he preached it in all its fulness and power, at
all times, m all places, and on all occasions — in sermons of almost
interminable length. For when his tongue was once set in motion,
the theme was so vast, the subject so grand, so good, so transport-
ing, that he seemed never to know when to stop. He had a noble
fiuse and an expressive countenance, and when lighted up by the
animation inspired by his subject, and accompanied by the music
of a most flexible and powerful voice, few men appeared to better
advantage, and none commanded more profound and fixed attention.
Hifl constant practice of delivering a whole body of divinity in eve-
ry discourse, gave a sameness to his pulpit labors that was unsuit-
ed to the wants of any single congregation — but this very circums-
tance Tendered him eminently useml as an itinerent preacher."
This admirable portrait of one of our oldest and most eccentric and
humorous, as well as eloquent ministers, will at once be recognized
by all who knew the original — ^who, in the ceneral outline and ex-
pression of his«oountenance, ereatly resembled the portrait of Dr.
Priestly. It is said that while Mr. Jones was a Baptist preacher,
he frequently stammered and hesitated in his public utterances ;
and that, referring to his marvellously increasea fluency of speech
and aptness of quotation and illustration immediately on b(>(i)iiiin^
a Universal ist, a Baptist neighbor tartly remarked that '' the d— 1
always helps his uwn." Mr. Jones humorously replied, that
" Calvinism was so crooked, and perplexed, and ©mtradictory, that
I had to look ahead and behind all the time to see that I did not
contradict myself continually ; and hence with all the help I could
26 UNIVERSALIST COMPANION,
get from man and the d — 1, I could not help Btnmmering. Bat

sided in Oneida county until about 1^35, when he removed to Jef-
ferson county, where he died at an advanced age, prolnbly about 85
years old — one of the last of those singularly gitted and eccentric
preachers we received from the old-fashioned Baptist denomination.
Rey. Jason Lewis, died in Keatine, Potter county, Pb., Juno 23,
1863, in his 60th year — after an illness (typhoid fever,) of only
nine days — leaving a wife, three sons (two in the army,) and a
daughter. He was bom in Middletown, Conn., January 27, 1803,
and in childhood was removed to Upper-Lisle, N. Y., wnere he at-
tained his manh(X)d. His father was and is a Baptist preacher ;
but Jason became a Universalist some years before he himself knew
what Universalism meant, while yet a mere lad. In 1830, when
in such feeble health that he had to sit in a chair, he delivered his
first sermon, and soon after commenced itinerating in the bounds
of the present Alleghany Association — which he suDscauently aided
to organize. In loo I he received the fellowship of the Chenango
Association, in which he had been reared, and was ordained in 1833.
He early attained a high rank as a clear and forcible writer for the
** Magazine and Advocate,'* Utica ; and his Letters to Clergymen,
inviting their candid examination of Universalism, were several
times published in pamphlet form and widely circulated. His late
valuable work on the Resurrection is the only hook from his pen,
and is the result of many years of thought and research. The Rc^gis-
ter gives his residence in B<>ston, N. 1., 1830 to 1840 ; Sprmg-
MilE, N. Y., 1840 ; Uh-sses, Pa., 1841 to 1845 ; Whitesvillc, N. f.
1845; Ulysses, Pa., 1846 to 1851 ; Homer, Pa., 1851 to 1854;
Philips' Creek, N. Y., 1854 to 1856 ; Homer, FA., 1856 to 1861 ;
Candersport, Pa., 1861 to 1802, (probably his nearest post-office.)
Br. Lewis vras of very slender and frail frame — ^health always ddir

men of our faith — one of Earopc.]

daring the past 25 years, of a large proportion of our Sundi^
School and other denominational hooks,) dicnl iu Boston, April 7.
1862. Bom in Boston, June 22, 1810, he was reared Uiere, and
learned hook hinding. hi 1830, he became much interested in
Fiather Ballon 's preaching, and exerted himself to get up the Sun-
day School in his church, and to efiect improvements in the appear-
ance of our hooks. In 1836, he purchased the *^ Ladies' Reposito-
ry," and opened a small bookstore. From this period, his name
is intimately connected with our literature, the enooura|jement dT
our literary talent, and the general progress of our cause in Boston
and the region round about. Whatever he touched showed his
correct taste and improving skill. He was one of the earliest mem-
beis of the Warren street church, and among the first to discern
and encourage the merit of our earlv writers — Mrs. Scott, Mrs.
Mavo and her husband, Mrs. Jerauld, Mrs. Soule, £. H. Ghapin
ana others. When the ** Universalist Expositor," after several
ineffectual efforts was abandoned, he revived it, and as the ** Uni-
venalial Quarterly," continued it to his death, leaving an injunc-
tion to continue it, if possible. Yet it was never a profit, often a
kMB to him. The *' Rose of Sharon," (1840-1852) was one of the
best annuals of its time, and did more than anj other work, to in-
trodace favorably to the outside world, Universalists and their
writings. He was ever planning and working to exalt, improve
and extend a knowledge of the character of our denomination, and
his^sl thought in undertaking any publication, seemed to be
whether it would be creditable and useral to our cause. Yet ad-
mirable as was his denominational spirit, he vras equally estimable
for his public and social, and beloved for his domestic and private
life. He honored nobility of soul, and goodness, scholarship, and
gnuuB of whatever sect — whatever was beautiful in nature or art,
or excellent in humanity. Thus intelligent, genial, and aiection-

darti medical tmitises. His Report to Parliament, as Chairman of
a ]V)ard to inquire into the condition of dwellings of the London
poor, is a wonderful monument of his j^reat labors, sound judg-

popular treatises on the laws of life. But ho is l>e8t and most ex-

and its manner, than this volume. lie was engaged in preparing
improved editions of these two last named works at the time of his

PUBLIC DISCUSSIONS.
Since our last issue, the following public discassions have been

At Gilead, 0., August .S— 12, Rev S. M. Merrill, Methodiat, and
Rev. H. R.Nye.
Rev. a. BossERjf an. Pastor of the Univorsalist charoh in Rioh-
mond, Ya., was arrested and imprisoned last spring, for his loyal-
ty to oor government and country. He was probably the only
openly faith^l preacher in that city. He has since been released
on parole by the rebels, and restored to his suffering family and
people. We trust that Br. Boeserman will oontinoe to refgard the
Divme Word — ** For the Lord spake thus to me vrith a elrong
hand, and instructed me that I should not walk in the way of this
people, saying, Say ye not < A Confederacy^,' to aU them to whom
this people shall say, < A Confederacy,' neither fear ye their ftar,
nor be afraid. Sanctify the Lord of Hosts himself; and let Him
be your fear, and let Him be your dread."— lea. viii. 11-13.
OuB « Rbqistir " IN England. Rev. P. W. CTIayden, a Uaita-
rian clergyman in BngUind, writing to Br. S. Cobb, Bays—" I shall
AND ALMANAC FOR 1803. 81
be ^lad to Babflcribe for a yearly oopy of your * UniversaliBt Com-
rimon,' which is a meet encouraging and interesting publication,
am Burprised and moot crateful to find 1270 UniyeraaliBt Churches
in the United States. I Know of. none in England, though much
Uniyersalism exists as a floating sentiment, mffused in the atmos-
phere of several Churches."
Could we oondeose the Univeraalism which is " diffused as a
floating sentiment" in the Orthodox churohes in the United Statet,
we oauld easily doubU the number of our churohes in one year.
** BxKBroLXNT Sects." Hon. Thaddeus Stevens, Membsr of
Congress from Pennsylvania, lately said in reply to the attack on
Geo. Hunter — '< I was going on to say that Slavery was the cause
of the War. I haye sam that one religious sect, [the Methodists]
which I have named, has so decided. I have looked into the mat-
ter, and I see that the Baptists, the next most numerous sect, the
lineal descendants of the Puritans, and the inheritors of their stem
and honest principles, have proclaimed that Slavery is the sole
eaose of this war. The Lutherans and German Reformed, who
met recently in Synod in my own town and AUentown, came to
the same resolutioii. Those benevolent sects, the Uriversalists
and Unitarians, have lately passed the same decree. The New
School Presbyterian most emphatically, and the Old School Pres-
Sterians, that powerful Church, under the lead of that noble son
Kentucky, that eloquent divine, Rev. Robert J. Breckenridge,
have passed a decree as emphatic as language could make it, that
slavery is the cause of this war. The United Preahyterian Church,
embracing the As8«)ciate and Associate Reformed Churches, have
annoancra it as their judgment, that Slavery is the cause of the
During the dark ages, Qnivenalists were condemned and perse-
•eeuted by Councils and Popes, under the name of ** the Merciful
Doctors." Whether intended as a term of reproach or not, it cer-
tainly was a correct one, and honorable as coneot.

ing of our ministry, aside from their profession and denomination,

PREFACE.
After a winter of much illness in family and person, I was sad-
denly called to a situation in the Agricultaral DefMtrtment of the
U. S. Away from my books and papers, and engrossed with new
duties, it was rash to undertake editing the Register, but I was
assured that I would have much leisure during the summer months,
and could visit my home when I pleased. That leisure never came.
In fiict, the changes in the operations of the Department increased
my labors much beyond usual office hours. And thus, destitute of
my usual resources, with very scanty aid from others, and a poor
memory to draw upon in my guesses, I have prepared another issue
of the Register. I ask much oharity for the errors that may be
discovered in it. I have done what I could, at much more and
harder labor than it has ever cost me to get out two Registers
under other circumstances.
A. E.G.
Thanks. — Aside from our editors and the corrections of our proof-
sheets, we have received very little aid, and that from only a few
individuals of our ministering brethren. We felt the neglect the
more severely, because, in our new situation, we were 00 litUe able
to help ourselves. But we received very gratefully all that came
to hand — even to the correction of the address of a single preacher.
Br. J. 0. Skinner sent us a carefully corrected list of all the preach-
ers in Vermont ; and Br. Manford, of St. Louis, sent in many cor-
rections for that and neighboring States. And all oar editors have
aided us in and through their papers. May Heaven Ueas them
with many promptly paying subscribers.

RECONCILIATION.
Like the word atonement, from the old Aof^lo-Saxon, this word
derived, from the Latin cilium, (the eye covering,) simply means to
bring two parties in accord or harmony — unity of mind and feeling.
At-one-ment or state or condition of being one in mind, is only the
same thing differently set forth by re con-dliation. Friends that
had been alienated, separated, or made opposite to each other,
when reconciled, are again brought with tlieir eye coverings to touch
each other. Their h^s are together in loving counsel. Their
eyes see alike. They are re-con-ciled,
Uence in every case throughout the New Testament, the words
aione and reconcile (and their derivatives) might be used inter- '
changably. Though, by-the-by, the word atonement only occurs
once in our common version of the New Testament. A. B. G.
ACCOUNTING FOR 12 1-2 CENTS.
In south-eastern Ohio there exists a thriving Lutheran church.
Its pastor, the Rev. Mr. B., is noted for an exuberant fancy and m
very fertile imagination, enabling him to solve difficulties and ex-
plain riddles in the readiest manner. His audiences are often
regaled, if not instructed, by sermons on ** the sea of glass," ** the
pflde horse," and other figures of the Apocalypse— all made clear
to the most obtuse understanding !
After re- building their house of worship, the pastor was author*
iied to procure new hymn books. In due time they arrived, and at
h*s next appointment were ready for his parishioners* It appear*
that these books were advertised in their lournals at 50 cents ; but
the charge in the accompanyin]^ bill was 02 1-2 cents. At the close
of his services he stated these tacts, and that he could not account
for the discrepancy. While remarking on the puzzle, he took up
one of :he books, and as he turned its leaves, his eye rested on the
title-page, when, in an instant, all was clear ! ** Ah, here it is ! "
■aid he, '' it is all plain now — this accounts for it — * 12 mo.' 12
cents for Morocco binding ! " And the half cent is yet unaccounted
for. • D. B.

ANOTHER TESTLMONY.
The poet Wbittier, of the Quaker denomination, in editing a
work called ** The Patience of Hope/' thus adds another witness
to th?fact that all Christian' hearts beat reapoDsive to the reasona-
bleness of Uniyersalism. A. B. G.
** The awful question here touched upon has been too often pre-
sented bj theologians in such a way as to shock the moral sense,
by a necessary inference that the Diyine economy is alike consenra-
tivc of evil and good, misery and happiness. Implacable hate,
immeasurable reyenge, insatiable cruelty — all that is abhorrent in
man — haye been attributed by the yeriest blasphemy of logic to
God. Eternity of evil, an endless, aimless horror of discord, tor-
ment, and despair, belieyed in as an end and purpose of creation,
would seem to make heayen itself imptMsiblo. Our author, whihi
admitting the fact of future suffering and loss, refers it to that
conscious freedom of choice inseporable from man as a moral being,
the denial of which in this life or the next invoWes the loss of his
personal identity and accountability. The dark problem has no
other solution than that which is reached through simple faith in
the Divine Goodness. Shall not He do right ? Can we not leave
*a11 in his hands? If we, when nearest to Him in feeling, yearn
with tenderest pity after the sin-sick and suffering, how much more
He wh(»se name is Love? Ov«n'whelnied by a sense of our own
moral infirmities and the evil about us, we are too prone to question
the sufficiency of his love ; bound down, as it were, in the grave-
clothes of spiritual death, we too often distrust * the power of his
resurrection.' * Infinite Goodness,' says the Countess de Gasparin,
' finds us more skeptical than infinite jnstioe.' Sin, indeed, tnrows
a baleful shadow upon the future ; but who shall set limits of time
and plnoe to the mercy of God, which ^endureth forever f*
* When,' asks the author of this book in her dosins parmgraph,
* were I/>ve's arms stretched so wide as upon the cross ? *^ Looking
thitherward, ma;^ we not tremblinely and reverentlj trust the
larger hope, which, secretly cherished in the ininoat heart of
Christendom from the times of Origen and Duns Sootus to Uioaeof
Foster and Maurice, has found its fitting utteranea in the noblest
poexi of theflige?
' Oh yet we trust that somehow good

PITHY ITEMS.
Rer. T. H. Taylor deals out pithy articles for the New Covenant.
We bare selected a few for preservation in our little annual
Aquution won Skeptics — *' Tou tell me, my skeptical friend,
thai religion is the oontri?ance of the priest. How came the priest
into being 7 What gave him his power ? Why was it that the
ancient legislator professed to receive his laws from the gods ? The
fiMst is a striking one, that the earliest guides and leaden of the ha-
man saosL looked to the heavens for security and strength to earthly
instutioDs, that they were compelled to speak to men in a higher
name than man's. Religion was an earlier bond and a deeper
foundation of society than government. It was the root of civiliza-
tion. It has founded the mightiest empires ; and yet men question
whether religion be an element, a principle of human nature."
SurriciOT. — ^Rev. Robert Boyd says : ". To be in Chrisi is the
essential thing ; the way in which we have reached that place of
safety is of little moment." In this declaration he repeats the idea
of Pktul, who declares that " there is no condemnation to them that
are tii Christ Jesus" But he overlooks the apostle's declaration in
another connection, where he asserts that *' as in Adam all die, even
so in Chrisi shall all be made alive '' — thus securing the all-es-
sential thing for every human souL

CHILDREN S SAYINGS.
A chattering little boy of some four years old, 'whose father was
a physicmD, undertouk to practice the healing art. A man called
to procure medicine for a sick member of the family, and tlie
Doctor, followed by his boy, went into his study to prepare it.
The child soon came bock, and placing two or three papers in the
man's hand, told him to sive one on his return homo, and the others
eyening and morning. The man surprised as the precociousness
of the child, but supposing all right, rose to depart, when the
Doctor made his appearance with medicine, and gave it to the man
witli diti'erent directions. An explanation took place, when it was
found the little boy's packages contained ashes; and his aptnew at
imitation excluded him ailerward from his father's study in similar
cases.
A neighbor called one day wearing one of the shockingest bad
hats ever seen, which he deposited on the floor l)esidc bis chair
while he relatiKl his errand. On rii$ing to depart, the hat had dis-
api>eared, and only after a close and long si-arch was it found in the
slop pail, outside of the kitchen doiir — where it had been deitosited
by the infantile doctor ! Of course it was more unfit for wear than
Uftore ; and the man departed hatlcss, to buy another. After his
departure, the child indicated his opinion of *' the fitness of things "
and the propriety of his conduct, by quietly remarking — ** Pa,
had n't that man a hog of a hat 'f "
A little grand-daughter of sympathies so extensive as to embrace
even inanimate things, made the case of a wiudow curtain in her
cold bed-room her own, by asking her mother very seriously —
<* Mother, if I was a little blue curtain, would you hang me up at
that cold window ! "
Another little grand-daughter, rather opinionative, concluded to
abridge her infantile prayer to the merest necessaries. So, kneeling
down by her mother's side, she prayed, ** God bless me, Amen.*'
•* Oh, Lu-Lu, pray for Papa.' •* Is Papa sick ? " "No." "Well,
then, Papa can pray for heself." Kemonstrance, entreaty, re-
proach, all were vain ; and unwilling to make devotion disagreea-
ble by the use of harsher means, little Wilful trotted off to bed
Baying with a very po^titive air, *• Papa can pray for heself! "
Another time noticing the twinkling of the stars on a clear eve-
ning, she came with the gleeful intelligence — " Ma ! Ma ! the stars
are winking at me ! "
One morning when her tangled looks were rather harder to oomb
out than usual, she remarked, as she winced nnder the pulling —
<* The little sleeps are sticking fast in my hair."

EXPERIMENTINO.
Near the T^lkige of C, on the banks of the Monongahela, there
reaidee a cJaa»4eader who is fond of diacoursing upon the perfeot
Btate of Bian, originally. One of his neighbors, when under the
influenee of ardent spirits, takes delight in teasing the class-leader
on his favorite topic. Keoentij he saw his pious neighbor oominff
op street, and being in th s Tein, he awaited his approach and
accosted him. ** And so, you say, that God created Aoam and Eve
upright — perfect — do you?" ** Most certainly," said the class-
leader. «* Ihen^ why did he go to expertmentinf on them for? "
No answer — and the reason hfui not yet been given. D. B.
UNMERITED BLESSINGS.
*' He kath not dealt with us alter our sins, nor rewarded us aocording
to oar iniquities." — ^Psalms ciiL 10.
This passage is sometimes brought forward to prove that man
CBcaiies an adequate retribution for sin, and that every transgression
and disobedience do not receive a just recompense of rewu^. It
is aswrted that all who are forgiven of God, do not suffer an ade-
quate punishment for sin, but that the 'DeoMltj of Qod^s law is
remitted, that punishment is forgiven ; ana in this sense, God does
not deal with us after our sins, nor reward us according to our
iniquities. If jnstioe had its full demands, all must suffer eternally
in hell !
Those who accept this view of the subject, we think, entirely
misapprehend the meaning of the text, and give to it an interpre-
tation which contradicts the express declarations of the Divine
Word, which aflbrms that ** God will render to every man according
to his woriu ; " and ** will by no means dear the guilty," but he
that ** doeth wrong shall receive for the wrong that he hath done."
The Scriptures, whieh are explicit upon this point, are in perfect
harmony with the experience of the dinner.
In what sense then is it true that Qod has not dealt with us after
our sins, nor rewarded us according to our iniquities ? It is not in
regani to punishment, for Ue ^* will render to every man aocoru-
INO to his works; " but it is in regard to the unmerited blessings of
his hand, that He does not deal with us after our sins. He does
not acatter blessiuj^ along the pathway of humanity according to
oar merft. Man is a sinner ; he has broken the law of God, diso-
beyed the divine requisationH, and turned away from the testimonies
of the Most High ; and yet our heavenly Father has not withheld :
his blessings, but has shown us the manifold tokens of his goodness <
and love. These blessings are altogether unmerited, and coming as
the free gift of God, in bestowing them he has not rewarded os
10 UNIVERSALTST COMPANION
according to our iniquities, and in giving them, He has not dealt
with UB after our sins, but after his goodness, aud according to his
own loving kindness. All the temporal bleMtings we receiTo from
the hand of God, are accoi-ding to his infinite gOiKlness, not accord-
ing to our sins. Man is unmteful and disobedient, and merits
nothing ; but our heavenly (ather is kind to the evil and unthank-
ful, and freely bestows his blessings upon those out of the way,
and in doing it, He does not deal with them af^r their sins, but
after his own mercy and love.
A parent may have a disobedient child, and though the father
may administer an adequate punishment, yet he still loves that
child, and makes provision for his wants, is solicitous for his wel-
fare, and seeks his intellectual and moral culture and improveipent.
In this regard, the parent di-als with tlm boy not after his folly and
waywardnctiH and sins, but alter the love glowing in the heart of
the }^rent for the child. Though the parent make abundant pro-
visions for the physical comfort and mental and moral advancement
of the child, yet they are bestowed not acc(irding to the iniquities
of the boy, but according to the love of the Father. And the child
can say : '•*' These provisions of my father's hand are not according
to my iniquity, but according to his loving kindness. They are
not to be regarded as rewards for my sins and iniquities, but as
gifts, OS unmerited tokens of my father's love."
And it was in view of the manifestations of God's eoodnass and
. love that David uttered the language of the text. **The Lord is
merciful and gracious, slow to anger and plenteous in mercy. He
for^riveth all thine iniquities, and healeth all thy diseases. He
fiatisfieth thy mouth with good things ; and crowneth thee with
loving kindness and tender mercies.*' These blessings come not
accoiSing to our sins ; they are not rewards for our iniquities, hut
are the pure, unmerited gifU of God. Our lieavenly Father loved
us* while lost in sin, lie so loved the world as to send his Son, not
to condemn it, but that the world might l)e saved ; or, in the lan-
guage of inspiration, ** God commendeth his love toward as, in that
while we were yet sinners Christ died for us.*' ** God who is rich
in mercy, for his great love wherewith He hath loved us, even when
wo were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ."
Man has done nothing to merii the divine favor, nothing to piir-
€hase the divine blessings, and therefore God bestows his blessines,
not after our sins, but according to the multitude of his own tender
mercies. Though " He visits our transgressions with a rod, and
our iniquities with stripes, nevertheless his loving kindness He will
not utterly take from us, nor suffer his faithfulness to iaiL" This
■bows that the divine blessings are bestowed regardless of the im*
perfections and sins of men. God will not suffer his faithfulness
to fail, though He punishes the sinner. He does not mete out his
UcBtings according to our merits and sins, but aooording to the
nuJtitade of his tender mercies.

BELIEF.
No error is more common, or lees tenable, than that there is
great merit in believing certain doctrines, while nnbelief is consid-
ered a sin of the deepest dye. The Ghiireh can absoWe all manner
of sinners whatever maj be the enormity of their crimes, and give
them a passport to heaven, but the man who avows his disbelief in
her tenets, however pure his life may have 'been, is considered as
lost beyond all hope of redemption. This error is founded on the
supposition that a man can at pleasure believe or disbelieve a prop-
osition. But a slight ezaminatien of the subject will show the
fallacy of this sentiment. If a subject is presented to the mind
with such evidence accomj^anying it. that we cannot withhold our
assent, then belief is irresistible, and consequently there can be no
merit in doing that which is necessarily forc^ upon us. If on the
other hand the evidence is not sufficient to produce this conviction,
there can be no sin in not believing it. It is not a matter of choice
but of necessity. The Mahometan calls the Christian an infidel,
because he will not believe in the divine mission and character of
his prophet. This the Christian cannot do because he does not
find samoient evidence to convince him. Th« Christian renders the
■amc ephithet to the Mahometan and calls him the infidel because
he will not renounce the Koran and embrace Christianity. Now
the fact is, that as long as both are sincere in their belief, they are
not in the proper sense of the word infidels. They are believers ;
thev are faithml to what in their judgment is the truth. Infideli-
ty does not consist so much in not believing, as it does in professing
to believe that which we do not really consider the truth.
The merit then of belief, if there is any merit in the case, does
not consist in assenting to such and such propositions, but in an
open, frank and manly avowal of our sentiments. The person who
groclaims his sentiments, regardless of the inconveniences which
is avowal may produce, moved neither by fear or by favor, but
from the pure motive of benefitting the world and subserving what
he believes the cause of truth, cannot deserve the name of infidel.
Infidel m(»ins unfaithful, but surely he is not unfaithful, who trne
to his conscience, true to the light which he enjoys, declares the
honest convictions of his judgment.
As the merit of belief consists in an open avowal of our senti-
ments, so we consider the sin of unbelief consists in rejecting truth
or withuldins our assent from interested and base motives — in
short — in plain language — being hypocrites. And here, without
turning far out of the way for iliutstration, we would observe, that
those who preach a literal hell of fire and brimstone, in which a re-
morseless Deity will plunge a large proportion of his children,
while they actually only believe in a state of mental anguish, but
£ roach this fierce doctrine merely for effect, are certainly obnoxious
) the harsh name of hypocrites.
12 UNIVERSALIST COMPANION
It is not, then, how much or how little we belieTe that oc>nBti-
tutes us believers or infidels in an enlarged sense of the term, but
the ifincerity of our professions. Minds areas differently constitut-
ed as bodicH, and consequently that which will be eridenec to one
man will alt<»^ether fail in convincing another.
Though there is neither merit nor sin in belief or anbelicf, there
arc blcHsings and iwxjnveniences respectively arising therefrom.
If a truth which is proposed to the mind is salutary in its influence,
and operates fuvoranly on the moral character, and tends to human
happiness, then the repetition of this truth will be a privation of
the l)leM8ing8 it was calculated to procure. If on the contrary, it
is believed and meets acceptance, it will add to the happiness and
well being of the believer.
This will lead us to consider the reward of belief and the punish-
ment of unlH'lief. The reward of faith is that immediate and sure
benefit which arises from the knowledge of the truth ; and the
punishmeat of unbelief is that privation of enjoyment which results
from the rejection of the truth.
If virtuous actions arise from a particular belief, then a double
advantage is derived, the knowledge of the truth and the happy
fruits resulting therefrom. And are not these a sufficient reward
for faith ? And where would be t)ie humanity, where would be
the justice in inflicting any external punishment on the unbeliever?
Is he not sufficiently punished in rejecting those sanctifying truths
which impart such solid advantage to the believer ?
If we Keep the remark in tfew, we shall entertain more correct
notions of the punishment of unbelief and the rewards of faith, as
they occur in the New Testament, than are generally embraced on
that subject. We shall find that the believer does enter into rest,
while the unbeliever is deprived of all the solace the gospel affi>rdB,
and, therefore, so far from transferring these things to another
state of being, we shall discover, that the reward of faith and the
consequence of unbelief in the deprivation of happini>n, are insep-
arably connected and do require another state to receive oompenaa-
tion.

God's Oath. — A partialiat writer isays, ** The eternal God in
infinite CDndescension c >mvfi before the aHseinbled world uf* his own
gaiitj creatures, and swears by liis own being not only that he has
no pleasure in the death of the sinner, but that he has a contrary
pleasure— « pleasure in their conversion ! Now it is said thai
among men an oath of conlirmation is an end of all strife ; but it
Beems that between the sinner and God it is not the end of all
atrile ; bat that the sinner, after refusing to believe the word of
God, will go on to doubt his very oath. On, how deep and damning
is the sin of unbelief! '*
But this is not the worst state of the case after all ; fur the sin-
ner who doubts the oath of Gad only imitates the example of those
who are professedly righteous. Tiie l/ord has sworn tuat ** every
knee shall bow to him, and every tongue confess that it has right*
e«iuBness and strength in him '* (Isa. xlv. 23) ; but who believet
it? Ttiey are willing to believe G.>d wiien he swears that he ban
no pleasure in the sinner's death, and that he has pleasure in th«
sinner's &)nversion ; but when lie swears that all sinners shall be
coiivcTted and live, they are sure that he swears to more than he
can accomplish, and more than is or ever will be true. Thou that
condemneet'the sinner fi^r his unbelief, art thou also an unbeliever?
If his unbelief is deep and dumoing, is thine commendable ? Will
the God who condemns him for his sins, justify thee ! Out of thine
own mouth will I judge thee.

MORAL GHARACr£R NOT INHERITED.
We dip from the oolarana of a secalar paper the following para-
graph, which 18 called *« Good Thoughts for Bad Timee : "
*« Here ia one of old Thonuui Faller*a tbooghta, which ahowi hii
genial wit:
* Lord, I find the genealogy of my SaTionr atoingely checkered
with four remarkable changes in four immediate geroratioDS :
1. Roboam begat Abia : that is, a bad fiither begat a bad son.
2. Abia begat Asa : a bad father a good son.
3. Asa begat Josephat : a good father a good son.
3. Josephat begat Joram : a good father a bad son.
I see, Lord, from hence that my father's piety cannot be entailed;
that is bad news f jr me. But I see, also, that actual impiety is
not always hereditary ; that is good news for m^ son.'
In other words, moral character is not inherited, but is the pro-
duct of our own actions — the result of our own aims and efforts.
We are bom without character. We have moral powers in the
germ, but they have not been exercised. When we come to act as
moral beings, we begin to form character, and become good or bad

A GOOD CUAtop UNIMPROVED.
A Universalist friend of mine, who had withstood, for some time,
the asBaulto of a Partialist, concluded to make an attack himaelf,
the result of which was something like the following.
Universalist, When Christ said to his disciples (Mark zri. 15),
•* Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature,*'
what Vietter opportunity could have offered itself to speak of endless
punisliment, if true ?
P. None l>ettcr.
U. And yet the opportunity was unimproved?
P. Yuu are mistaken ; for Christ adds in the next verse, that
un>)elievt'rs will suffer endless punishment.
U. Your Bible reads differently from mine, then ; for mine says,
** He that bulieveth and is baptized shall be saved, but he that
l)elievvth not shall be damned,*' but not a word in regard to endless
punishment.
P. What do you mean ?
U. I mean that all Universalists teach and believe in the damna-
tion or condemnation, (whichever you may call it,) of all who dis-
believe the truth. In iact, that is one of our peculiar doctrines.
P. Is it possible that you think there is no alluMon to endless
punishment?
U. Not the slightest hint. It was a grand chance, but not im-
proved.
Barbarian Horror of tue Doctrine of endless Pu^'ishmbnt.^
When Tsing-ti, the Ambassador to Chrintian Europe from CliiDa,
returned from his mission, he informed the £mperor that be was
told by a Christian priest *^ we can bury such only as were in the

go in peace who are condemned to everlasting fire !'* To whicn the
Emperor replied :
** Amazing ! have they thst? who invented it? Eaerlasting

A GOOD ANSWER,
When we liyed in old Salem, they nsed to tell good etoriesof Dr.
Braiier, one of the Unitarian pastors of that city.- He was verj
plain in dress and habit, fVank and simple, though graceful and
imprcflsive in his manners. He professed Iittie more tb^n an earnest
iaith in tlie Gospel, but his life was manly, and he abounded in
good works. It was one of his ways to put the millionaires of hit
church under contribution for many liberal charities, and to settle
annuitit*s upon unfortunate and destitute families, without reygard
to sectarian claims. One time a poor man had met with an acci-
dent, such we believe, as losing an arm or le^, and the Doctor was
the first to ristt him, and provide &r his necessities. As he leOb the
house and reached the gate, he met a minister of one of the Trini*
tarian churches, who said, *' Very sad accident, sad indeed — how is
the po:ir m&n this morning ? " '' Suffering much," said Dr. Brazier*
«*Have you prayed with him?" asked the other. <* No, I have
not/* answered the Doctor, ** He *s had a hard day of it, he suffers
dreadfully still, I did n't like to trouble him with eere<iionv, but
I've tried to do something for his tamily, and — I — slipped — tea

Bach information. If our pketches are meagre, it is because our
information has been equally so.
Rev. Wx. M. Pattee, departed at Felts Mills, Jefieraon Co.,
N. Y., July 20th, 18C2, aged 29 vears Ue was a member of the
first class of graduates of our Tyeidogical Seminary, and the first
of its graduates to enter the world above. After a yearns pasto-
rate in Woodstock, Vt., he found that too close application to
study had germinated the seeds of consumption, and ue returned
to his friends, where, only 15 months afU*r his marriage, he went
**IIome,'' leaving a widow and an orphan boy. He is said to
have ^Mren *"■ a manly Christian and a Christian man — an ardent
UniversHlist, yet no bigot; an enthusiast, but no fanatic; he was
spirituallv minded beyond his years, and had the witness within
him to the truth of Christianity, and to the reality of all those
things that pertain to the kingdom of God. He had already be-
;un to crmtribute to our denominational literature, and it his life
lad been prolonged he would have adorned it. The lamp of faith
burned brighter to the last. In spite of the strong tics that bound
him to this world, he submissively accepted God's will as his law,
and rose to his rest supremely.'*
Rev. Lemuel Movrok departed in Delaware Co., Ohio, in the
fidl of 18G2, aged 72 years. He vras bom in Pennsylvania, but
emignited to Ohio at an early age. He was educated and remain-

He was ordained a minister of the reconciliation aboat twenty
eiars before his decease, and continued preaching until hie death,
e was an earnest and fjliithful laborer, plain and outspoken oo all

Ret £. H. Lack departed suddenly by the bursting of a blood ves-
sel in the streets of Richmond, Vs., in the fall of 1862, aged about 40
years. He was bom in Haverhill, Mass., but moved to Lynn
when 15 years old. He soon became constant at church, and ac-
tive in conference-meetings. In I8;i9, when only 17, he commenced
preparing for the ministry, and soon after began preaching in
school-houses in the surroundinjj towns. In 1840 he entered the
fiimily of Br. Jewell, for convenience of study. Shortly afterward
he was settled successivelv in Middleton and Bridgewater, Mass.,
and £Hst Kingston and Westmoreland, N. U. About 1850 here-
moved to South Carolina on account of failing health, and travelled
extensively in that State, North Carolina, Virginia, Georgia, Flori-
da, and ^lississippi. He wrote considerably for the Universalist
paper of that region, held several public discussions, published a
tXKik, and did the full work of a hearty man. Br. Lake was a
ready, fluent speaker, ardent, earnest, keen yet pleasant, and had a
retentive memory. He was difficult to manage in controversy, but
always orderly, respectful, and kind to his opponent He had
purchased a small house and tieirm of 100 acres in Magnolia, N! C,
where he resided with his family of wife, son about 15 years and
two or three daughters, %11 unittdly industrious. He had seemed
to be on the border of the grave with consumption, for two years

Riv. Wm. H. Baldwin, (better knovm as ** Judge Baldwin,*')
departed at Biancheeter, 0., Nov. 19th, 1852, about 50 years of
age — disease, typhoid liever. He embraced Univcrsalism early in
life, as a life-principle, the bread of life for the soul — and such it
ever was to him in all the business, the duties, the relations of
life. In early manhood he engaged in mercantile pursuits, in
which he continued to the clotie of life. But he also studied
law, and entered on its practice with success, and was chosen a
Circuit Judge and filled the office with dignity, usefulness and
honor. But the Gospel was his ** theme of themes, and to live it,
to enjoy it, and to extend its influence, his great concern. He was
foremost in or^nizing a church and Sunday-school where be lived,
and was prominent in attendance upon his Association and State
Coovention, of both of which he was frequently chosen Moderator.

Rev. J. Hkmpuill, late of Rid^way, N. Y., departed at Yap-
mouthport, Maas., May l9th, 1863. lie had labored fur several
years in New York, and but lately settled at Orleans, Mass., when
failing health induced him to visit some relatives, and on his way
was confined at Yarmouth port, where he shortly ended his mortal
life, resigned to Gud^s disposal and in peace with all mankind, lie
was a warm-hearted, intelligent and devoted preacher.
Rsy. Wx. Hard departed life in Nebmska, Michigan, March
21st, 1863, afler four years of suffering with consumption. Father
Hard had a good report in oar churches as a faithful minister of
the Lr>rd Jesus Christ, and died rejoicing in the faith.
Rev. J. H. Clkveland was killed in the char^^e on the rear of
the enemy's works at Vicksburg, May 19th, 1863. Br. Cleveland
was a native of Kentucky, and possessed a delicate organization.
Notwithstanding his strong bias in favur of the South, he decided
in favor of sustaining the Government against the rebellion, and
entered the army for the Union, where he did his duty well,
though unfortunately opposed to some of the measures adoptel for
suppressing the reheilion. He wns noble-hearted, a zealous minis-
ter, and possessed fine talents as a writer and speaker, and thus
became a valued sacrifice on the altar of his country's salvation.
His labors in South eastern Indiana were of great value to our
cause, and it is hoped that God will incline some hearts there to
adopt and rear his orphan daughter.
Rev. 0. H. Tillotson departed at Northficld, Vt. in June
last) of consumption. He had been many years in the roinitftry,
and made full proof thereof by his efficiency and zeal. He was not
only designed to depart, but ai*sircd his family and friends not to
clothe themselves in mourning garb — "Let everything be as
cheerful as possible."
Rsy. Moses B. Smith, departed at Newark, N. Y. on April 10th,
1863. Father Smith was for many years a much esteemed medical
practitioner in Otsego County ; but feeling it his duty to proclaim
the Qospel in its fulness, he entered the ministry about 30 years ago,
and after laboring to great acceptance in the section of his early
residence, he removed to Western New York, where, af^er some
years of labor he was called to his rest. Father Smith was a man
of grave and pleasant manners, somewhat diffident and unassuming,
but dignified in deportment His sermons were sound and in-
struetiva. His life was free from blemish, and his truly Christian
spirit and amiability won the confidence and afiection of all who
knew him well.
22 UNIVERSALIST COMPANION
Hev. Daniel St. John departed May 25th, 1863, in bu 87th
year, in Marion County, about 12 miles from Indianapolis, Ind.
For many years ho resided in Franklin County, Ind. and was often
called to serye his fellow citizens in ciyil offices. But he was bet-
ter known, all through western Ohio and south eastern and central
Indiana, as an earnest, genial, pure-hearted preacher for forty
years or more — often a pioneer amid reproach and bitter op|ioai-
tion — continuing to itinerate until loss of hearing and other in-
firmities confined his ministrations to his more immediate yicinity;
and of late years, rheumatism limited even these ministerial labors
to the warm seasons. He was feeble, but in usual health on the
day of his death« He had walked half a mile or more, and feeiins
some pain in his chest desired to lie down. While being assisteS
to his bed, his spirit gently departed in peace. His remains were
interred with Masonic ceremonies.
Rsy. T. L. Marshall is reported to us as haying died daring the
past year, but no particulars of date, place, or of his past life,
nayebeen fumishc».
Rbv. Charles Spear, the ** Prisoner's Friend," formerly of Bos-
ton, Mass, died in Washington, D.. C, in April, 1863. He bad
been Chaplain in the St. Elizabeth Hospital, but had beoi re-
moved some time previous to his death, probably from disability,
or in oonseqoence of changes oonstanly occurring in the Hospital
arrangements. Notwithstanding Br. bpear*s peculiarities of men-
tal character and personal habits, he was a remarkable man. He
commenced life in humble condition, and his constant liberality
to every object and form of distress, kept him poor. He was a print-
er by trade, but his hif^h religious seal and strong philanthropy
forced him into the ministry, and into ministrations especiaUy con-
nected with human degradation and su£foring — the abandoned,
the outcast, the down-trodden, the intemperate, and especially the
prisoner were his parishioners. To reach them with the Gospel
to ameliorate their su£terings, to improve their minds, to elermta
their moral and social oondition, he travelled fisur and wide, and
even crossed the ocean. He had a large fiunily, bat evwi their
claims were not allowed to restrict his exertions or to stint his
bounties : and it is believed that they were helpers of his joy—
his wife, it is known, was with him in Washington, laborin|^ fi»r
those who needed her help, until the President appointed hin a
Hospital Chaplain, when she became bis helper Uiere. His ab-
sence of mind, forgetfulness of self, and disr^rd of (if not inabil-
ity in) pecuniary matters, often subjected him to painful embar-
rassments when IVom home ; but that Providence on which be re*
lied for aid as for euidanoe, always provided friends and means to
deliyer him. Br. Spear's work on Capital Ponisbmenty and aipe^
AMD ALMANAC FOB 1864. 2S
iallT hie UrgiBr and more exhaustiTe work on the Tiilee of JeAis,
will long be read and admired among us. Besidee these, his lite-
rarj labors prodaced Voices from Prison, and a periodical called
(like himselr) ** The Prisoner's Friend/' extended through several
jeara. Had Br. Spear belonged to almost anj other denomination
than the UniTersalist, he would have been much wider known and
more highly praised during life, and his death would have been
announcra ana his funeral attended with greater euloigy and higher
honors. But ** the world cares for its own," and ** the ohildroi
of light " are oflen less wise, (or certainly lees demonstrative of
their wisdom,^ than ** the children of this world in their genera-
tion.'* His luneral services in Washington were attended by a
Presbyterian, (a patriotic one, Dr. Sunderland,) in a Presbyterian
church, afrer an announcement so brief as to escape the notice of
his religious and personal friends, few of whom knew it in time ;
and the body was removed to Boston for burial, with almost as
little notice m our papera of his life and death, as if he had been
nndistinguished by any peculiarity of effort or of worth.
Among the many most worthy and useful laymen of our denom-
ination who have departed for our heavenly Home during the past
year, we can only notice
JoHir EL Houns, Who died in the service of our country, a mar-
tyr to Southern prison hardships, at Annapolis, Md., May Tth,
1863. Br. Holmes vras bom in Hartford Co., Ct., in 1809. His
thirst for knowledge led him to travel to Hamilton, N. Y., wholly
dependent on his own labon to obtain an education in our Acade-
my there. Becoming interested in religion, he changed his pur-
pose of studying law, and commenced preparations for the minis-
try by the aid of Rev. John Freeman, and afterwards of Rev. S. R.
Smith, then at Clinton. He was fellowshipped in 1833, and preach-
ed in New Yoric, Michigan, and Ohio, until in 1836. Not succeed-
iag as well in speaking as he desired, he returned to his fint life-
porpose, the law, and removed to Illinois, where, in two y^urs, he
was admitted to the Bar, but aftervrards, under strong solicitation,
preached one year for the church in Joliet. He made his perma-
nent home in Jefierson, Wis., in 1843. In 1846-7, he was a mem-
ber of the Territorial Council — in 1848-9, Lieutenant Oovemor —
in 1852, elected to the State legislature —all which positions he
filled with honor and usefulness. But his ** chief concern" was
religious principle and duty. He was identified with Universsl-
isn always and everywhere — a leader and pillar of support in
our cause. But when the rebellion against republican government
and freedom arose, he felt it his duty to lead there — to leave
ehureh and home for the battle-field. He received his commission

lile.
Abner CiiicnESTER, of New York city, and for many years the
able and faithful Tre^isurer of the liarscn Relief Fund, departed
September 23, 1802, aged 71 years. Br. Chichester's early and
middle period of life were spent in mercantile pursuits. xVnd he
embracetl Universalism early alr*o, and shortly after c<mnected him-
self with our church and l)0C4ime active in our cause. From the
formation of tlie Fourth Society he has been an honored memljer
of the sanic ; unobtrusive, but ever active, and always elBcient.
To his judicious care tiie ministerial Relief Fund owes not a little
of its increase. But it was in the circle of friends, and esfiecially
in the bosom of his family, that his affections found richest play,
and his virtues were l)eht known and nppreciate<l, where hisammble
and cheerful spirit beamed most brightly and l>eautiful1y.
Dr. Jacob Harsen, for many years President of the N. Y. Relief
Fund BoMrd, established by his father, the late Col. C. IJarsen, depiir-
ted in New York city, December Slst, 18G2. Though Dr. Harsen
studiiHl medicine well, and was an honored member of the prufes-
sitm, yet he never practised it to any extent. He was unobtrusive,
but dilij^ent and zealous in his relit;ious profession, and lived
esteemed and honored by all who knew him. He bequeathed
$10,()(H) to »?weil the Relief Fund, to which his father and a sister
had already generously contributed.
BsNJAViN Ellts, FiSQ., of Williamsbur);, N.'Y., formerly of Cin-
cinnati and New York cities, deserves mention for his lone eontinued
activity in our cause ; his steady attention to our church and con-
ference meetinjii^H, and his unwearied efforts in the cause of common
schools and cniucation K<^nerally. He died in Williamsburg, Octo-
ber 8th, 18g2, aged 76 years.
Note — Rev. B. L. Lite, of Harbor Creek, Pa., we are informed,
has departiHl during the year ; but we have received neither date*
of birth and death, nor any details of his life.
Rev. W. L. Giijian, died in hospital, at. Gettysburg, Pia., of
bWdinj; of his amputated leg, on July 28th, 1863 ; resigned and
cheerful to the last.
Of tlirse (and {Kissibly others) we hope to be furnished with fuller

The Musical Supplement, and Congregational Mel-
• odist. By Rev. J. S. Babbt and Prof. B. F. Tweed.
Large 12 mo.; flexible. Price 45 cents; $33 per hundred
to Societies.
This work is well adapted for conference meetings and the
home circle ; but is especially intended as a Congregational
Htmn and Tune Book, to accompany '' The Hymns for Christian
Devotion/* (which is the standard Hymn Book of the Univer-
salist denomination. ) The Hymns are s uppUmentary to **Hymns
for Christian Devotion," and there are a sufficient number and
variety of Tunes to sing every hymn in this book. Thus the
two books combined furnish the most perfect system of Congre-
gational singing in our order.
07 Any Hymn in the "Hymns for Christian Devotion," can
be sung to any tune of the same metre in the Tune Book, which
cdnnot he done where the hymns and music are all in one vol-
ume.
017^ It is much handier to use than a large unwieldy volume.
ttlr' The Tunes are in the right keys for Congregational sing-
ing, which cannot be said of any other work in the Universalist
denomination.
BIT* The two books together contain nearly 1200 Hymns, of
the very best quality, and as large a variety as can be found in
any other work. Sample copies sent by mail, post-paid, for 45
cents. Societies wishing to introduce Congregational singing
will do well to examine this book, and we are confident that
apon examination they will adopt it.

(From BeT. J. W. Putnam, Pastor of the DanYers, Maas., UniTersalist
Society.)
Messrs. Tompkins & Co. : —
Having examined the series of " Doctrinal Text Books," for
the use of Sandaj Schools, by Rev. L. J. Fletcher, I would
recommend them to the attention of Superintendents and Teach-
ers as worthy of bcingproved by the only certain test of superior
worth in any School Book, viz., actual use.
I have risen from the perusal of the series with favorable
impressions of its adaptedness to a present want of the Sunday
School ; and venture to predict that it will prove a useful laborer
in a good cause.
(From Rev. D. K. Lbb, Pastor of the Auburn, N. T., UnlTersalist Society.)
Messrs. Tompkins & Co : —
. Gentlemen. — I have always regarded Mr. Fletcher as one of
our most successful writers of Sunday School books. These
lesson books — "The Infant School," "First Impressions,"
** Key to the Young Heart," and " Guide to Salvation," are
very fine works. Mr. Fletcher does not treat children either
as idiots needing insipid prattle, or as theological students
requiring turgid homilies to instruct them, but as loving and
intelligent young Christian learners; and he gives them
thoughts they can understand and enjoy, and sentiments that
make the heart glow. I find the present series of this character.
The author translates Scripture history .and truth into the words
and thoughts of intelligent children, and shows the life of Jesus
more beautiful and attractive than romance.
(From L. W. Ballou, Esq., Superintendent UniTersaliBt Sabbath School,
WooQBocket, R. L)
Messrs. Tompkins & Co : —
I wish to thank you for the great service I think you are
rendering the Sabbath School cause, and the Universalist denom-
ination, in publishinff in so attractive a form the " Doctrinal
Series " of Sunday School books, prepared by Rev. L. J. Fletch-

PEEFACE.
Tub preparation of a number of the REOistER for 1865 waft com-
menoed by The New EngUnd UnlTersaliBt Publishing House at a
late day, after the idea of continuing the work had been abandoned
by the former editor and publishers, as an enterprise that, in these
times, could not be self-sustaining. Realiadng the need, and the
Tolne to the denomination of an annual statistical record, with the
consent and en<X)uragement of the former proprietor, the managers
of the Publishing House decided to incur the expense of resuming
and continuing the abandoned work. Hence this number for the
ensuing year.
The time that remained, after the work was undertaken, for its
completion was too brief to admit of obtaining, in the present
unsettled state of the country, all the statistics needed, and those
who have had its preparation in charge only chiim for it such a
degree of completeness and accuracy as under the circumstances was
possible. When it is considered how few of our conyentions and
associations have taken any measures for fiimishing official returns
of the statistics within their limits, it will not be thought surpriung
that our annual Register is imperfect, especially when prepared in
the brief time allowed for the present number.
The iuTcstigations mode in preparing this number of the Register
have convinced those having the work in charge that it is highly
important to the interests of the denomination that our several State
Conventions fdmish each year an official report of the statistics of
the order within their limits, and it is hoped that this matter will
reodve special attention at their next annual meetings.
It is also evident that our denominational Year Book should be
a larger and more yoluable work than It^ia nofWi oi Yae \«(9&> «e^

The (.'lir.uiuluiri'Ml Tahlo, a new feat

AND ALMANAC FOR 1865. 29
BIOGRAPHICAL.
Rev. John A. Gurley, at the age of al>out fifty years, died in
August, 1803, near Ciocinnati, Ohio. His death terminated a ca-
reer of extraordinary energy, usefulness, and success. He was
bom in East Hartford, Conn. During his boyhood he worked at
the hatting business. At the early age pf seventeen or eighteen,
he had a desire toward the ministry ; and at the age of twenty, we
find him travelling and preaching in the western part of the State
of Maine.
Early in July, 1835, he settled in Mcthuen, Mass. In less than
a year from his engagement, a good meeting-house ^s in a state
of forwardness, which was dedicated in the summer of 1836. ^n
the winter of 1838, having bought a small Universalist paper of
Mr. Tazzard, of Cincinnati, he started for the *• Queen City.*' The
journey was then quite a long one, performed mostly by stage.
As a capital with which to commence, he had about $100. Soon
after his removal to Cincinnati, he was engaged as pastor of the
society there, which office he held five years, preaching to large
congregations. During the week, and often for weeks together,
he joumeved into far distant States and territories, holding discus-
sions, and preaching the word wherever a door opened. In this
way, he worked his energetic little paper — ** The Star and Sentinel *'
— into extensive circulation, and became himself widely known as a
marked preacher and debater. The circulation soon ran up to^w,
and in a few years to Icn, thousand subscrilicrs.
About ten years ago, satisfied that he must turn his attention to
out-door cares to save tlie remainder of his shattered constitution,
he sold his pa^jcr establishment, and ceased to preach. Since this
time he has filled two terms as Representative in Congress, and
was, at the time of his death. Governor of Arizona. Mr. Gurley
was apparently a frail man ; and yet he was capable of enduring
great labor. He was less than fifty years of age when he died, but
it is thought that few men of seventy have performed so much labor
as he had performed during his lifetime. He was a man of great
business talent. He was emphatically an executive man. He saw
what was to be done at once. He knew no discouragement aft^er
he had settled his plans. Full of zeal, pervaded with life and
animation, his mind made up, and with unusual decision of char-
acter, he went forward, expecting, and generally realizing, success.
As a brother and friend, he was esteemed in everv circle in which
he moved. He was a *< favorite '' with the minietett^ VkSid \>Vi<^
people. His memory will long be cbcrbhed 'w\0[i tok^^i^^ %sl\

obeequics, ** and a sure tcBtimonj of the profound esteem in which
he waa held by all who knew him. There were little children, for
whom he always had a Kuiile and a kind word, shedding their tears
like rain. There were weak women, in whose homes at times of
gresit affliction and trial his presence had been felt like a powerful
charm, who seemed to feel their hearts bursting with grief as they
looked upon the liicc of the dead. There were strong men, who
had tried to cmulato his pure life, who wore bowed with agony,
and made weak as babes standing by the casket of one whom they
loved and honored. Old men, too, with thin and shining locks,
wore a look of ineffable sadness, as they ^lade farewell to him who
had been so firm a friend and help to them in their declining years.
I shall never forget the apiKfarancc of one old patriarch, who
approached the coffin with tottering Pte])a, laid his hand uyion tlie
bead of the deceased, and then, placing it upon his own forehead,
turned away with an expression of the dccjK'st sadness, as though
ho had lost a treasure that could never he replaced in this world.
I saw him again at tlic cemetery, standing at the door of the
sepulchre, with eyes suffused, his gray hairs fluttering in the wind,
and his uncovered head bowed in the attitude of prayer.
Kev. Thomas Stakr King died in San Francisco, California, March
4, 1864, at the age of thirty-nine years. lie was u son of Kev.
Thomas F. King, one of the fathers of the Universalist ministry,
and was Ix^rn in New York. lie couimenced his ministry as pastor
of the Univcr^aiirtt Society in Charlestown, Mass., August, 1840.
Soon after, he accepted a call from the Ilollie Street Cliurch, in
Boston, after which his symijathics were more with the Unitarian
bo<ly, though he never L/st liiith in, or failed tt^ pri»acli effectively,
the Tniverhalist interpretjition of the word. In 1800 he removed
Ui San Francisco. Here he did a great work fur lilx.*ral Chris-
tianity.
lie accomplished results which, as the work of one individual,
performed in the sjmce of three or four years, may V»e called a
marvel. Chiefly under Unitarian auspices, the Universalists of
San Francisco co-operating with him, he organized a large so(;iety,
built a costly church e<]ifice, and all this in a way to establish a
centre of influence and ^H»wer, that will reach — now reaches —
every portion of tlie Pacific coast.
Mr. King also did a marvellous work for the nation in its
present struggle with rel)ellion. All over the State of California,
bis ringing voice and fascinating rhetoric have plead the loyal
cause, with an effect that is palpably felt in the councils of the
nation. No reputed statesman in California had, at the time of
fai8 death, a tithe of his influence to develop, and mould for f^ood,
the loyal sentiments of the people. It speaKS much for Mr. Kmg a
hold upon the loyal heart tliat he was oflered the position of

felt. He won the tvttvm of all who knew him. His services, and
liis articles in the denominational papt?rs, were always liigh in re-
ligious tone. In his caw*, the words may be fitly s|*>oken : ** Tho

Rev. L. B. Mason died in May, 1SG4, in Madison, "Wis. He was
favorably known as a nrejicher, and highly eHtc'cmcd in New Eng-
land, ilc was at one time pistor of tiie Second UniverNilist Church
in Ixiwell. From this city he moved to HaWrhill, ^Iat?B., and was
wiHtor of the Universal ist Church in that place several veurs. From
lluverhill he was called to the pastorate of St. Paul's Church in
Chicago. He became proprietor and editor of the ** New Cove-
mint/' and conducted the {ui^Hrr with much ability and excellent
t<Mn()cr. Not long after the ]>rt»aking out of the relu'llion, he l)e-
cume clia plain of the Twelfth Wisconsin ]U*giment ; but tlie hanl-
sliips and exposure incident to the position were too much for his
fruil constituti<m. HUlKnilth compelled him to resign his office in
tlio fall of 1803, after having faithfully served his regiment from
tlic day of its organization, llis men loved him devotedly, and re-
H{XH}ted him, and ti'Htifieil to his faithfulnws as a chaplain. But ho
came home utterly liroken in health and has sintH^ lived mainly by
force of his indomitable will, preaching and working, when many
men of feebler determination would have been in l>eil. On one or
two occasions, he fainted in the pulpit when officiating, but still
persisted in his lalxjrs till within a few weeks of his decease.
Rev. T. R. SrENCER, a " good man, and able minister of the New

preacher, both as respe<;ts his moral worth and his intellectual qual-
itieci and attainments, st(K>d high among his brethren ; and he Imves
an enviable record of his fidelity, and of his influence. The editor
of the " Christian Rep<x)itory said of Mr. Spt^ncer, ** No man in

one of our best preachers and jiastors.'* On the Monday following

only one. Repeated calls to other parishes, with strong financial
indiLcementH, were in every instance declined. lie felt that the
pastoral relation was not to be rudely broken, and was content to
work in the field where he felt sure he was successfully doing the
minister's work. As a scholar, a thinker, writer, speaker, and pas-
tor, he deservedly ranked high in his profession.
Rev. S. J. Gibson died November 13, in Sheshequln, Penn.,
within a few days of forty-eight years of age. He was well and
favorably known as ♦* Duell l)ow/' communications over this name
having frequently appeared in the denominational papers. At the
time we make this record, his dea^h is so recent that we have not
had opp)rtunicy to get the facts for a more extended sketch of his
life ana labors.
Rev. Trumax A. Jackson, Co. E, 122d Reg. N. Y. Vols., died in
Andersonville, Ga., October 20, 18G4, aged twenty-nine years. He
was born in Swanzey, N. II. After a careful preparation under Rev.
S. H. McCollister, he entered Tufts College m the summer of 1857.
He was destined to a life of sharp viciissitude. The mental strain
0oon pn>ved too great for the frail tenement that held his fast
growing soul. Tlie hereditary tendency to consumption com|)ollt'd
him to relinquish his aim. lie had not gone through the chitisics,
but he had learned by heart both the religion and politic* of our
metropolitan liberal pulpits. Procuring the necessary books, he
studied theology, and soon began to preach- For about two years
be ministered every alternate Sunday at Marlboro' and Surrey.
In August, 1863, he was drafted into the army of the country.
His parish at once generously offered to purchase his exemption ;
but nis brave soul revel te<l at the thought. He was a thorough
patriot ; he had often encouraged enlit^tment ; he had earnestly
urged the importance of sustaining the government ; he had even
wanted to go as a volunteer ; now it seemed to him that God had
called him, and he did not falter or hesitate. He left all, —
society, friends, home, and wife, and joined the army.
, He was first stationed at Klmira, N. Y., and afterwards at %ni-
cuse, Ohio, at both places being detailed for light duty. Efforts
were made to procure him a cnaplaincy ; but he was young, a
fltranger to inouential men in New York State, and of course tlie
attempts failed. In the spring of 1804, his regiment joined the
army under Grant ; and in the battle of the Wilderness, on the
6th of May, he was wounded in the shoulder and taken prisimer.
The wound soon healed, and he was able for a time to render much
aid to the sick an4 suffering. Then for six months came no
tidings. Rebel atrocity was doing its fiendish work. At last he
died, we know not exactly when or how. It was a wooder that

James Eastwood, General Agent. It has done an important work
the past year, having distributed over 100,000 army tracts, 55,000
papers, magazines, and Testaments, together with a large amount
of clothing, hospital supplies, etc., to soldiers in hospitals and in
the field. It has expended more than $6,000, which has been
mostly contributed by the Universalist churches and the friends of
our cause. Large contributions have also been made by persona
without Massachusetts.
The Mission, mainly under the management of John Osbom,
Esq., is carried on with increasing energy and usefulness.

Great quantities of reading matter have been distributed. It has
expended several thousand dollars.
THE WINCHESTER CONFESSION.
The Supreme Court of New Hampshire having decreed that
Universalists and Congregational ists, in law, are one and the same
denomination, and that Universalists were therefore liable to be
taxed for the support of Congregational parishes, the General
Oooyention of Universalists ap^iointed, in 1802, a Committee, con-
sisting of Z. Streetcr, H. Baliou. W. Ferris, and Z. Lathe, to
prepare a Profession of Belief stating wherein Universalists differ
urom Congrcgationalists in religious views. The Committee re-
ported, and uie Convention adopted, the following, at the annual
seflsion in Winchester, N. H., 1803. By common consent it is now
the aothoritative standard of the Universalist theology.
PROFESSION OF BELIEF.
1. We believe that the Holy Scriptures of the Old and New Tes-
taments contain a revelation of the character of God, and of the
doty, interest, e^nd final destination of mankind.
2. We believe there is one God, whose nature is love, revealed
in one Lord Jesus Christ, by one Holy Spirit of grace ; who will
finally restore the whole family of mankind to holiness and happi-

WHO ARE UNIVERSALISTS.
An attempt has been recently made to diBtinguish Univoraalists
only by a disbelief in future punishment. Such an attempt is
unjustifiable. They agree in tlie great doctrine of the final holiness
and happiness of all men ; and tliey leave every man to form his
own opinion in regard to the times and seasons when this great
event shall transpire.
There has been some discussion within a few years post, on the
appellation Universalist. The question seems to nave l)een, whether
this word ought to be applied to all who believe in the eventual
restoration of all mankind, or only to a particular clans of them.
On this subject we have never bad but one opinion, and that
opinion we have frct^uently expressed ; namely, that all persons,
who truly believe i/i the eventual salvation of all mankind" by the grace
of the Lord Jesus Christ, are Universalists, Tiiis is the rule laid
down in the ** Modern Ilistorv of Universalism.'* For instance,
Richard Coppin and Jeremy vYhite, who both flourislied in the
time of Cromwell, are put down in that work as Universalists,
although they differed much in opinion on minor |)oints, the latter
being a Trinitarian, and a believer in future punishment, the for-
mer discarding that doctrine. — \\hittemore*s Plain Gutde,
UNIVERSALISM.
The leading element of Universalisra is the doctrine that the
divine govenimcnt is paternal in its chanicter, that Ciod governs
the world of mankind as a father governs his family of children,
for their good. This great doctrine, forming the suliutnitum of
Christianity, interprets all that is built upon it. It makes pun-
ishment, not vengeance, but correction, needed and wholesome
diacipliue; and therefore not a calamity, but a blest^ing. It makes
Bolvation, not the deliverance from punishment, but from sin and
■infulneBS which fenders punishment necessary. It shows that
to be saved is to come into a condition of harmony with the divine
laws, — a condition of obedience, personal righteousness. It shows
that to be saved is not to escape God's wrath by means of vicarious
atonement, but to come into tne appreciation and enioyment of his
love, by being changed in feelings, motives, and oondurt, from bad
to good, from wrong to right, from sin to holiness. To effect this
change is the object for which Christ came into the world. Uui-
Teraal salvation implies, not as the enemies of the doctrine affirm,
that sinners may go to heaven in their sins, but that all will, under
the diicipltnar^ government of God, in his own good time, be
tbua cbai^gjed uom bad to good. How much of .a calamity will it
be for all auiful people to Ix^me good, like Christ in character and

POPULARITY.
There is one species of popularity, and only one, which may be
truly priz<M}. It is that ot wliicli Lord Manslield spoke when, in
the celebrated cause of the king against Wilkes, he exclaimed, *' I
^sh popularity, but it is that pojiularity which follows, not that
which is run after. It is that popularity which, sooner or later,
never fails to do justice to noble ends pursued by noble means. I
will not do that whicii my oonscicnce tells me is wrong, to gain the
' huzzas of thousands, or the daily praise of all the papers which
coine from the press. I will not avoid doing tliat which I think
right, though it should draw on me the whole artillery of lihels, all
tliat falsehood and malice ctin invent, or the credulity of a deluded
people can swallow."
^ • TUEOPnOBIA.
Rev. John Chambers, of Philadelphia, formerly struck as hard
as he knew how at the heresy of Univcrsalism. On one occasion
ho preached from the words, *» Knowing the terror of the Lord, we
persaflde men." Giving the most stringent interpretation to ter-
ror, the entire exposition resolved the Supreme Being into an ob-
ject of dread, — demonstrated by the fact that he had created an
endlcHS hell.
Our brother. Rev, A. C. Thomas, in a public review of Mr.
Chambers, admitted that the Greek phohos, often signifying rever-
ential fear, had sometimes the sense of terror or oread, as when
we read that '* fear hath torment," — a sort of fear that perfect
love caeteth out. Hydrovholtia^ meaning a dread of water, is an
example. But it should oe observed, said Bro. Thomas, that the

PREFACE.
The Editors of tho Register for 18C5, made an appeal, in the pref-
ace, to the several State Conrentions, to furnish oflBicial statistics of
the Societies and Ministers in their fellowship, for future numbers of
the Register. This appeal has been responded to by the New Eng-
land States, New York, and several otherOf but another year or two.
and a more general interest, are required to complete the work thus
begun, and secure statistics from all parts of the United States and
the Provinces, that shall be complete and accurate. It is hoped that
the Importance of having such statistics will soon lead to the neces-
sary action on the part of every Convention, at each annual session.
The method of each Convention has been to appoint a Committee
to prepare statistics, after its annual session, for the Register. This
was the only method practicable at first. We suggest that, hence-
forth, as a rule, tlie Committees be requested to prepare the statistics
before the annual sessions, and then their Reports may be corrected
and adopted by the Conventions when Delegates are present from all
parts of the States, and sent to the Register in season to enable tlie
Publishers to issue it promptly at the proper time, — in November of
each year. There must be systematic metliod and pains-taking care
in furnishing the statistics, or the Register cannot be as correct, nor

History. — The State Convention was first organized at
Providence in April, 1838, and was reorganized at Pawtucket
in June, 1861, under the Act of Incorporation from the State.
Legislature, and with a Constitution in many respects similar to
that of the Massachusetts Convention.
The Convention has published, during 1865,a ** A Christian
Catechism for Instniction in Doctrine and Duty," which, though
small, is comprehensive. It is the result of considerable thought
on the part of the Committee which prepared it, and is believed
to supply a demand on the part of earnest Universal ists for
Bon^ething that, in few words, embraces enough of doctrine and
duty to give a clear idea of what the Denomination holds as
cardinal points of faith and practice.

BIOGHAPHICAL BECOBD.
Bet. Francis E. Hiokb, died m Lowell, Mass., April 23/
1 865, aged 34 years. We regret that we have been unable to
gather many particulars of the life of this minister, whose great
excellence of character, and whose devotion, from principle, to the
sacred calling, entitle his memory to honorable mention. He
came to Lowell, in July, from Potsdam, N. Y., and commenced
the first Sunday of next month his labors as pastor of the Second
Universalist Society. His brief pastorate in Lowell was suc-
cessful in the essential matters of Christian work. He formed
a wide circle of acquaintance ; warmly attached himself to nu-
merous personal friends, and secured the confidence and co-'
operation of the Society. The congregation gradually increased ;
the Sunday School improved, both in .attendance and interest ;
and he organized a Bible Class, to which he gave his pefsonal
attention as a teacher, the funeral of Mr. Hicks was largely
attended, the services being held in the Second Church. Be-
sides the parish, many citizens showed, by their presence, that
they felt that the city had lost a useful member of the commu-
nity. The city clergy testified to their appreciation of the pro-
fessional worth of our departed brother. A body of Masons
were present, and joined in the throng of the mourners, bearing
to their last resting-place his mortal remains. The church was
draped. in mourning, and impressive Scriptural mottoes, expres-
sive of the sorrow of the people, were arranged upon the walls.
In the death of this worthy man, a promising minister was stricken
down in his early prime. ' The denomination has lost an ear-
nest Christian teacher, and the country a noble and useful citizen.
Bet. William S. Ballou died, in Princeton, 111., on the
30th of August, 1 865, aged 56 years. Of the three brothers who
have honored the Christian ministry — Hosea 2d, Levi, and
William, all now deceased — William was the youngest ; and
all were the sons of Asahel Ballou, nephew of Hosea Ballou.
We condense the particulars of William S. Ballou's history
from an article contributed to the " Ghospel Banner " by Bev.
O. Perkins: —
44 UNIYBBSAUBT BKGISTER
He was settled six years, in the early part of his ministry
in Uartland, Vt, afterwards several years in West Bratt1eboro\
Strafforil, and Springfield, Vt, and in Ghesliirc, Mass. He was
much interested in the educational enterprises of a few years,
having been mainly instrumental in establishing Melrose Aca-
demy, in West Brattleboro', and, we think, after his removal to
Illinois, he labored quite extensively for the interest of
Lombard (Jnivorsity. He was a very able preacher, and a veiy
upright, honorable man, worthy of his relationship to his two
brothers of the same profession. Whoever listened to his
preaching had the privilege of hearing the discussion of impor-
tant themes in reasoning concise and clear, and whoso was not
instructed by his treatment of a subject was either very wise
or greatly otherwise. He felt deep interest in the parity and
the prosperity of the denomination to whose interests a large
part of his life and labors were devoted, and desired that its
foundations should be firmly laid on Christ, the Bock of ages, and
always there abide. His health was far from being firm much
of the time ; and, after he went West, he became a large land-
owner, and was extensively engaged in agricultural pursuits,
continuing to preach, however, some portion of the time. Like
his two brothers, William was naturally modest and retiring.
Ho valued the purity and reputation of the Universalist minis-
try, and nothing grieved him more than to learn of the defeo-
tion of a brother minister from the principles which he revered
and loved. He leaves no family, having never married ; bat»
wherever he has been well known, are hosts of friends to rise
up and call him blessed, and to deplore their loss in his de
cease.
Bev. Sttllh/in Barden died, in Bockport, Mass., Augost 7
I860, at the age of 53 years. He was bom in Stoddart, N. H«
He commenced his ministry in 1889, and labored with hat
little cessation for twenty-siK years. Most of his ministxy was
in Massachusetts. He was settled as a pastor in South Bead-
ing, Orleans, Beverly, Marblehcad, and Bockport In every
community where he labored, ho won friends by the earnest
ncss of his zeal, the purity of his motives, the high moral un
of all his labors. He possessed a moral courage, a love of the
truth, and a regard for the best interests of Universalismt whiofa

led him to rebuke error faithfully, yet, at the same time, in a
vay to convince and profit His whole ministerial life — his
whole domestic and social life — has been a life of Christian
fidelity and zeaL Not preaching to large congregations of
people, never receiving a large salary, he was, Aevertheless,
truly successful in securing the best results of the ministry.
There was no envy or jealousy mingled with his spirit He
Bought'and loved that close intimacy, that true and full confi-
dence, that true and disinterested friendship, which only the
true and the good can know and appreciate. He was sensitive ;
only, however, as he saw, or thought he 8aw,fca lack in the true
Christian spirit of love on the part of those who make the Chris-
tian profession. His Universalism was intensely practical. He
was active in the cause of temperance, and did not consult his
ease, or even his health, if any opportunity presented itself for
suppressing the sale of intoxicating liquors, and the removing
of temptation from the weak. He was the friend of the slave ;
the anti-slavery causff had not a well-wisher more ardent or
more conscientious. He was veiy devotional in his spirit
He loved the Conference meeting, and was always ready with a
warm and suggestive word to give it effect. He was very de-
nominational ; but, yet, not a narrow sectarian.
During Mr. Barden's residence in Bockport, says a secular
journal, he ** took a very active part in public affairs, and in
the welfare of the public schools he tool^ a deep interest In
the science of mineralogy he was much interested, and had
gathered quite a large and valuable cabinet of choice speci-
mens." While in Marblehead, he became noted for his inter-
est in natural science ; if we mistake not, he occasionally lec-
tured on some of its topics.
His last preaching was in the March before his death, his
failing health rendering it necessary that he should give up
preaching. His friends hoped that a temporary suspension
from labor might prove beneficial, and he be enabled to resume
his duties as a pastor ; but his disease was too deeply seated,
and he gradually failed until death came to his relief. He died
triumphantly, bcariug testimony to the power of the faith he
had so earnestly preached, retaining full consciousness to the
last, and making all the necessary arrangements for his funeral.
His end, as had been his whole life, was peaceful and quiet
46 UNIYBRSALIST BEGIBTEB
To the brethren of the ministrj who called upon him a short
time before his death, he said, "It will be sweet to die." In
view of death and eternity, he said, " All is beautiful." On
occasion of his funeral, the following beautiful hymn was sang,
in accordance with the request made by Mr. Bardcn, previoos to
his death : —
We are Traitinf^ by the river,
We are watching ou the shore.
Only waitinf^ for the boatman ;
Soon he'll come to bear us o'er.
Thouch the mist hang o'er the river.
And its billows loudly roar ;
Yet we hear the song of angels,
Wafted from the other shore.
And the bright Celestial Gitr,
We have caught such radiant gleams.
Of its towers like dazzling sunlight,
With its sweet and pc«ceful streams.
He has called for many a loved one,
Wc have seen them leave our side.
With our Saviour we shall meet them.
When we too have crossed the tide.
When we've passed that vale of shadows,
With its dark and chilling tide ;
In that bright and glorious city
We shall evermore abide.
Hon. Darwin J. Daniels died, in Manchester, N. H*
August 12, 1865, at the age of 50 years. He had long occupied
a high position among the laymen who have done much for Chris-
tian Universalism in New Hampshire. He was a religious
man. He saw and felt the relations of all his life to God, and
the practical duties these devolved upon him. In the infiuu^
of Universalism in Manchester, he was its friend, and was soca
to the day of his death. When a young man, of comparatively
little means or influence, he bestowed upon it according to luii
possessions, and, as these increased, so did his contributiona
Upon its altar ho has liberally laid his labor, time, money, good
counsel, a spotless life, and a triumphant death. For Uie last
thirty years he has been a resident of New Hampshixe, and
during all but seven of those years, of Manchester. He has been

known in that city as school teacher, merchant, treasurer, and
financial manager of extensive manufacturing corporations,
treasurer of the Manchester and Lawrence Bailroad, member of
the Legislature, and Mayor of the city. To all of those posi-
tions he brought rare ability, fidelity, devotion, and in which he
was eminently successful, proving himself both a wise and good
man. He possessed a remarkably quick and clear perception of
the facts and principles upon which success in business and
office dependa But to this were added the affectionate heart,
fine taste, and sensitive conscience, which made him an honest
man, — honorable in all things ; a Christian gentleman, a faith-
ful Mend, and devoted father and husband. And, withal, he
was so modest and unpretending that places of honor and trust
were never sought, but imposed upon him. So, while honored
as the representative of these positions, he was most loved for
himself.
Ebv. Shalir J. HiLLEB died, in North Salem, Westches-
ter County, New York, at the age of 68 yeara His venerable
years, his great fidelity as a Christian minister, and the esteem
in which he was held by all who had the pleasure of his ac-
quaintance, have justly made the circumstances of his life and
labors prominent in the columns of our denominational pres&
The Editor of the "New York Ambassador," who knew him
intimately, gave at the time of his decease a sketch of his life
and character, from which wo extract the following : —
'* Mr. Hillycr was a native of Connecticut, and was brought
up in the orthodoxy of that State, as it existed half a century
or more ago. We first made his acquaintance in Newark,
N. J., in the winter of 1830-31. He was residing there, and
engaged in teaching a private school. He had already become
an earnest and intelligent believer in the doctrine of God's im-
partial grace, and the final salvation of the whole human family.
In the' spring of 1831, he removed to this city, and conducted
a private school in connection with the Grand Street Univer-
salist Society, afterwards so widely known as the Orchard
Street Church. Here he became a Superintendent of our Sun-
day School, the first, or certainly the second, organized in the
denomination in the State of New York. In the autumn of
1831, Mr. Hillyer began to preach the doctrine which he bo
48 UNIYEBSALIST REGISTER
much loved, and toward the ministry of which he had for a long
time been directlug his thoughts and his prajer& He was soo-
ccssful; and, after laboring as opportunity offered for some
time in different places, and performing much missionary work
through this part of the State and New Jersey, he received and
accepted an invitation to become pastor of the North Salem and
Long llidgc Societies, in 1834. And here for more than thirty
years he continued to live and labor, surrounded by friends, and
loved and respected by all who knew him, till deaih terminated
the relation.
** Mr. Hillyer maintained through life an unspotted reputa-
tion. If a breath of calumny, under the influence of religions
prejudice, was ever breathed upon his moral character, it was
instantly reflected without sullying his fair name. His con-
science was enlightened and tender; we never knew a man
more scrupulously honest and truthful, or more careful to do
nothing that could injure any one, or give just cause of offence.
He adojitcd literally the exhortation of the apostle to ' avoid
all appearance of evil.' Mr. Hillyer was a clear and logical
thinker, and his reasonings often assumed much the character
of mathematical demonstration. His talents were of the solid
rather than of the superficial order, and his worth and influence
partook largely of the samo character. Long will he be
remembered as * a good minister of Jesus Christ' Long will
his many virtues be cherished by a largo circle of attached
friends ; and long will his benign influence be felt wherever he
was kno>vn."
Rev. Ctrus F. Wait, died at Woodstock, O., Septembers,
1S6.'5, aged 41) years.
He was born at Grand Isle, Vermont, 1816. Some three
years subsequent to his birth, his parents emigrated with
their family to Ohio, s^d settled in an almost unbroken wilder-
ness, near where the village of Irwin, in Union County, is now
located. Of necessity his early opportunities for learning were
very limited, being confined to common schools; but possessed
of a mind naturally keen and active, ho surmounted every
obstacle, changing them from stumbling-blocks, that would
impede his progress, to stepping-stones to higher and atHl
higher attainments. He was a self-made man. Beoonuog a

convert to Uniyersalism, ho prepared himself for the ministry,
and received a letter of fellowship as a clergyman from the Win-
chester Association of Universalists at Mechanicsburg, 0. June
4, 1843. The following year, the solemn and impressive rite
of ordination was conferred upon him by the same body. He
preached his first sermon at Woodstock, where he continued to re<
side until the time of his decease, with the exception of ono year
spent at Fairfield, Indianapolis. He was a zealous and indus-
trious laborer in the vineyard of the Master. Woodstock,
Irwin, Pleasant Valley, Newton, Pharisburg, Plattsburg, Miami
City, Beynoldsburg, and New Madison, 0. and Faiirifield, the
Bake and Miller settlement, Indianapolis, may be reckoned aa
places that have enjoyed his stated ministrations for a longer or
shorter period, besides numerous others where he occasionally
broke the bread of life to listening multitudes. He was very
frequently sent for, far and near, to officiate on funeral occasions,
and was distinguicQied for his marked ability to minister c6n80-
lation to the afflicted.
He was by his own townsmen elevated to stations of honor
and trust He was a worthy member of the ancient and honor-
able Fraternity of Free and Accepted Masons. He was also a
member of the L O. 0. F. and for several terms presided as
Noble Grand, over the Lodge at the place of his residence.
During his sickness— which was a complication of diseases^
defying medical treatment — his mind was clear and buoyant,
enabling him to bear his affliction with resignation and Chris,
tian fortitude. True, he desired, if such was the will of Gk>d,
to remidn for the sake of his dear wife and children, whom he was
called to leave, yet he freely confessed that He doeth all things
well. And with an unwavering faith in the glorious GK>spel
he had so fully preached to others, he passed from earth, happy
in a Saviour's love. The funeral was attended on the
second day after his decease ; a large concourse of mourning
friends were present, to whom a discourse was delivered by
the Bev. S. P. Carlton, whose history of Mr. Wait, published
in the Star in the West, we have freely used in his biographi-
cal sketch. Tho funeral discourse was from the text, — •• But
go to my brethren, and say unto them, I ascend unto my
Father, and your Father ; and to my God, and your God."

50 UNIVERSALIST REGISTEK
Ho was born in Halifax, Yt He studied Theology witb bis
brother William S. while the latter was settled in Hartland,
Vt. He was settled in Orange, Mass. in 1843. He was twice
married, first to Mi.ss Chase of Guilford, Vt. a sister of the
wives of Revs. Edwin Davis and William N. Barber, and second
to Miss Goodale, of Orange, who survives him. He was a kind,
devoted husband, an a£fectionate and faithful father, and in all
of his relations a genuine Christian gentleman. His funeral
was attended on Sunday October 29 , at the church in North
Orange, in which his voice had been so often heard, — where it
is sad to think it will be heard no more.
" We were acquainted with him," says Rev. O. Perkins, in the
Gospel Banner t " for the last fifteen years, and we never knew
a more pure minded, upright man than he. He was possessed
of a very kindly disposition and charitable spirit One coald
not know him long and well without revering him for bis
manly, Christian qualities of mind and heart Many of the
better aspects of human nature were illustrated by his character
and life. He cherished a very deep, affectionate regard for the
flock with which ho had been so long connected, and bis
prayers for their spiritual welfare were fervent and Bincere.
He served as Superintending School Committee in the town of
Orange many years, in which capacity he exerted a most salu-
tary influence in the intellectual and moral character of the
rising generation. Several of his early years were passed in
teaching, and he did not commence his labors in the ministiy
80 early as did his brothers. It was, we believe, his last pub-
lic act to take part in the re-dedioation of the Church in Or-
ange, in which ho had preached nineteen years of the best part
ofhis Hfe."
Rev. Moses MoFarland, died at MontvQle, Maine» NoTom-
ber 1, 1865, at the venerable age of 83 years.
Wo gather the following interesting facts in the life of this
excellent man, from a communication, furnished bj Bey. W. A. .
Drew, for the Gospel Banner^ which facts we give in tbe
writer's own words : —
'< Mr MoFarland was bom in Bristol, Maine, in 1782. He
was also married in that town. At the age of sixteen he ex-
perienced xeligion under the preaching of Elder BandaU, tba
AND ALMAVAO fOB 1860. 51
fonndcr of the F. W. Baptist denomination in the same State.
On attaining his maturity, he shouldered his pack, and direct-
ing his course by spotted trees, made his way into the interior,
region in what is now Montville, selected a lot, felled his trecs»
built a log house, returned home, married, took his chosen com-
panion to their wilderness home, and commenced to make a
farm. It was here that he was called to the ministry ; but
friends desiring him to be out on some public road where he
could be more accessible, he sold that place and purchased land
on the Kennebec and Belfast road, then just opened, at a place
now known as McFarland's Comer, where there is a pleasant
little village. This was some fifty years ago. ITiero he built
a house (the one in which he died), carried on his farming
operations, and went forth to preach the gospel, wherever a door
of ntterance was opened to him in all diat new country from
Penobscot to Kennebec Biver. He never received a salary or a
stated compensation. In 1826 his spiritual vision was en-
larged, and he saw a fulness in Christ for the salvation of all
mankind. At one of the F. W. Baptist Conferenoes he preached
his sentiments plainly. A Committee was appointed to decide
whether his doctrine was not Universalism. It was decided by
a unanimous vote that it was; but the Conference took no
ground against him on that account They loved the man,
knew him to be a Christian, and could not disfellowship him.
Subsequently, he applied for membership in our Convention, and
was admitted. This was forty years ago, save one, during all
which time he has been a true and devoted friend to our cause,
illustrating his profession by ' a well-ordered life and conversa-
tion.'
** He was a man of great meekness of temper and kindness of
heart He was mighty in the Scriptures, and, unlike some
modem preachers, always had a < thus saith the Lord ' in proof
of his doctrine. He went where the Scriptures led, but did not
choose to be wise as to the future condition of human souls,
beyond what God had seen fit to reveal in his holy Word.
Well would it be for our cause if such an example could be
followed.
'' Perhaps what gave him such popularity amongst even the
enemies of our faith, was his wonderful charity and good will
to all who differed from him. He loved no one the less became
52 UNITlBaALIBT BBGISTXm
ho did not believe as ho did. He never threw stones at anj
ono. The law of retaliation was not in his heart. For curse-
ing he returned blessing. When reviled he reviled not again.
If a person struck him on one cheek, he turned the other alsa
If people said hard things of him or his doctrine, he forgave
them. In all this he studiously adopted the rules of Christian
discipleship laid down by the Master. I do not believe he had
an enemy on earth. I never heard any person speak reproach-
fully of him.
" In person, he was the most apostolical looking man I ever
saw. Tall, erect, with silvery white long hair flowing over
his shoulders or hanging by the side of a face remarkable for
its mild, pleasant, loving gravity, he made a figure that might
have been set advantageously in a picture with the beloved SL
John in his old age at Jerusalem. But the good old man has
gone. He wished to go, and his prayer was that he might have
patience to wait God's time. That time came at last, and he
passed away calmly, breathing his spirit into the hands of
Him who gave it."
Rev. Lafaybtte Barstow died in Orono, Me., Nov. 10,
IS Go, at the age of 43 years. In the sudden decease of
this devoted Christian minister, the community in which he
had labored seven years, and the denomination of UniversalistSk
su£fered a loss which, under the circumstances, was realized in
a peculiarly painful degree. The first we learn in the history
of Mr. Barstow, is his youthful career in Chicopee, Mass,
While young in years^ he was mature in character. A Univer-
salist by profession and also in his daily demeanor, he won the
confidence and respect of the brethren in Chicopee, with whom
he was united in the Church relationship.
In 1850 ho went to Oregon, remaining in that far-off conntiy
several years. But absence from his youthful home did not
weaken his attachment to the faith ; for it was in Oregon that
he felt the call to consecrate his life to the ministry which he
honored in subsequent year& Bctuming from the West, he
entered Tufts College. Prom the College he was called to the
pastorship of the Universalist Society in Orono, Me. ; and in
this relation he labored with zeal, diligence, and succesa for
eight years, closing his only pastorate with his life in the flesL

of sect ; and on the day of his funeral, all the honses of worship
— save the Universalist, in which the services were held —
were closed. Ex* Governor Washburn, for several years one of
Mr. Barstow's parishioners, wrote, in regard to his death, and
the loss to the Orono Society, and to the denomination, as
follows : —
. " We have always felt, but now feel more deeply than ever,
how good a- man our Br. Barstow was. The parish at Orono,
our denomination at large, and the people of Orono, will rcajlize
that a true, earnest, devoted man has fallen. In the com-
munity where he lived his place will not be easily supplied.
He had become, as it were, an integral part of the life of Orono.
His well-known form will be missed upon the street, the light
of his genial face, radiant with spiritual beauty, will be a joy
in its homes no more, but his memory wiU be sweet and precious
to all, of whatever religious name or party, who have known
him intimately. Let him sleep in the cemetery of Orono, or at
Mt Hope, and among his people whom he loved so tenderly
and served so faithfully ; and where the turf which covers all
of him that was mortal may be moistened with their tears ;
and let the people of his charge and his Sunday School unite in
erecting a suitable monument over his ashes, in commemoration
of one of the most faithful of pastors, devoted of superintendents,
and sincere of men."
Hon. J. 0. CniTBoniLL, — a pioneer of UniversaUsm in Port-
land, Me., and ever one of its staunch supporters, — died in
that city, Nov. 20, 18C5, at the ripe ago of 78 years. We give
the following particulars in the life of this Christian Univer-
salist, in the words of the Rev. W. A. Drew, printed in the
Gospel Banner.
Mr. Churchill was bom in Newmarket, N. H., April 24,
17d7. He commenced his career of manhood as a sea-captain ;
but e'er long resigned that severe profession, and engaged in
mercantile pursuits in Portland, doing business chiefly by im-
portations from the West Indies, where he owned and carried
on sugar plantations. By this trade he became wealthy. In
1824-1826 he was elected a State Senator by the County of
Cumberland, and was regarded as the guide of the Senate in
all commeioial matters. In 1828, he was chosen presidential
64 trNITIBBALIST BSGISTEB *
elector (the Star in the East), and also in 1832. In 1843
he was run as the Whig condidatc for CoDgress, but his partj
bcin<r in a minority at the time, he failed of an election. la
lvS44 he was chosen Mayor of Portland, which office he fiUol
with great honor to himself and satisfaction to the people
Leaving the mayoralty office, he retired to private life, and en-
gaged largely in Fire and Marino Insurance business ; he waa
aliso for years the efficient President of the *' Portland Com-
pany," the largest manufacturing concern in the city.
lie was one of the five Committee who built the first Univcr-
salist Church, yet standing on Pearl St This was in 1821. That,
ever after, was his religious home, where he worshipped God ai
the Father and Saviour of all men. When the Society built
and moved into its new house on Congress Square, the old
Church was advertise^ and sold at auction. Gapt. Churchill
was present and bid it off for 8 <3,500. Soon a new Society
was organized to continue Uniyersalist worship in it. He
could not bear the thought that that house should pass into
other than Universalist hands or be used for other purposes
than Universalist worship. He lived long enough to see the
Society well established, and a Pastor settled.
He lived a Christian life, and died the Christian death. Aa
a citizen, in intercourse with his fellow-men, the distinctive
trait of his character was personal integrity. His word was as
good as his bond. At one time, in his business life, his liabili-
ties on the paper of other men involved him to the amount of over
fifty thousand dollars. With a promptness of honor that few
men would have evinced, ho willingly sacrificed all he had,
even to the selling of his gold watch, to redeem his liabilities,
from which ho happily recovered, became he wa$ an honest num.
•» Another incident illustrating his character for integrity was
related by ez-Govemor Washburn. It seems he had oblig^
a neighbor in business by indorsing a note for 8 3.000. This
fell into the hands of Gen. S. Fessenden, for collection. The
principal had failed, and owing to some oversight. Gen. F. had
neglected to serve the timely notice on Capt Churchill, which,
in fact, released him from his legal liability. Gen. F. called
on Capt C, and stated to him tho misfortune of his neglect,
and assured him that he was no longer holden in law to pay it
" What I" said Capt Churchill, *' does Gen. Fessenden sappon
AND ALMUTAO fOft 186A. '65
r
I would take any advantage of his neglect? No sir ; wben I
indorsed that note I meant to be responsible for mj signature,
and shall see that the note is fully cancelled." Ho advanced
•the 8 3,000 out of his own pocket, and hold Gea F. harmless.
Such integrity is quite uncommon in the world. Probably not
one business man in a hundred but would have taken advantage
of his legal release. Kot so with this honest man. Well did
the poet say : —
**Aa boneit nuun'i the noblest work of God."
Sev. Joseph Sabgxnt, Chaplain 13th Begi V. Y. M., died
of typhoid fever, at Camp Carusi, near' Oocoquan, Va., April
20, 1863, aged 46 years.
He was bom in Warner, N. H^ Nothing is known by us of
his early life. He prepared for the ministry with Bev. S. A.
Davis, and preached first in Sullivan or'Cheshire County, in his
native State. His first settlement in Vermont, his adopted
State, was at Barnard, where he preached two or three years.
Thence he moved to Barre, where he was xsonstantly employed
eight years. By his untiring efforts, the Society was enabled
to build the substantial church edifice in which it now wor-
ships, the erection of which in a favorable locality probably
saved the Society from decay. While in Barre, Mr. Sargent
took a leading part in many of the social enterprises of the
place, laboring for the cause of education, being chiefly instru-
mental in forming a town Library Association, and twice repre-
senting the place in the lower branch of the State Legislature.
He was next engaged as State Missionaiy, one year, in which
capacity he was very successfoL He then removed to Plain-
field, and took charge of the Universalist Society in that town
two years. Desiring better opportunities to educate his chil-
dren, he moved to Williston, where, after two years service as
Pastor of the Universalist Societies in Williston and Essex, he
was chosen, in the autumn of 1862, Chaplain of the 18th Begt,
y. y. M. Having a kind, sympathetic heart, and great
facility in ministering to the sick, with an inexhaustible fund of
mirth, he was very useful to the soldiers, who loved him with
passionate fondnes& He left a wife and four children, — -one
of whom, the oldest, a young lady of great worth, has since
joined him in the better life. Devoted friends, wherever he

OUB ABinr BECORD.
The Editors of tbe Register believe they can insert nothing
in this number of our year book of more value than the record
of the noble men of our denomination who responded to the
call for an army to rescue the countiy from the perils of the
late Bebellion. Such a record cannot be too extensively circu-
lated and read. As here given, it is copied from the proceed-
ings of the last session of our General Convention, and is the
principal part of the Appendix to the very able Report made
to the Ck>nvention by Rev. E. G. Brooks, of Ne^York.
In introducing the Appendix, Mr. Brooks remarks : —
" ThatTa roll of Officers, to the exclusion of Privates, who had
given their lives to the country should thus be contemplated, was
owing to no lack of appreciation of the bravery of the latter class,
or of their claims to grateful remembrance. Among them, I have
no doubt, God finds the grandest heroes of the war. But there
oonld be little hope, I thought, of making a list of them com-
plete ; and if even approaching completeness, it would be too
long for publication in connection with the Report In respect
to dicers, as in respect to the other classes named, it seemed
to me not unreasonable to anticipate that the list might be made
fulL A call for information was therefore issued. It was
kindly copied, I believe, into all our papers ; and had those
able to respond to it, all of them, furnished the information
desired, the Convention and the Denomination would have been
presented with a record of no small interest and importance.
As it is, the record that follows, though tolerably complete as
regards our Ministers, is, I have no doubt, very imperfect in
other respects. This no one can regret more than myself.
Having done all I could to make it fiUl, however, I present it
for what it is worth."

Hon. Frank B. Fay, of Chelsea, Superintendent of the Sani-
tary Commission Belief Corps in the Hospitals Bev. J. East-
wood says of him : '* Mr. Fay was the first to. suggest the idea
of such a sanitary force, and to him was committed the work of
its organization. He has been eminently successful in his
labor. He has secured not only the esteem, but the love of all
who have served under him. A Universalist, self-proclaimed
as such, everywberp known as such, still such has been his pru-
dence, his patience, his justice, and integrity, that he has won
encomiums from all, even old Princeton, through its students,
volunteering praises for him. His disinterestedness in his
work is evinced in giving gratuitously his time and labor to the
cause."
Hon. Mr. Baxter, M. 0., of Vermont, and wife, have rendered
very efficient service in the Hospitals in Washington.

This roll of honor woiill not be complete if it should fail to
make mention of Rev. A. Bosserman, Pastor of the Univeivali«t
Church in Riolimon.d at the outbreak of the Rebellion. Exctj
other pulpit in the city yichlcrl to the pressure, and arrayed
itself on the side of trea>*on ; Brother B;>ssenaau stood firm.
Arrested, imprisoned, threatened with death, he still sto«>d
firm, denounciu;; traitors and proclaiming his loyalty to our
dear old flu;?. Let his name be written in th*: light it deserves.
Sumner Henry Nkedham was neither officer nor Chaplain;
but holding the relation ho does to the war. this record can in
no way be so well closed as by adding his name to it A
member of the Massachusetts 6th, marching through Biltiraore,
ho was the first man mortally wounded in the contest, and his
body was the first among the thousands of our patriot mirtyrs
to be borne with funeral honors to the grave. Born in Bjthcl,
Mc., March 2, 182S, he had been a resident of Lawrence.
Mass., about twelve years. He there connected himself with
our Society, and was a regular attendant upon its worship.
•• He was," says his Chaplain, Bev. J. W. Hanson, to 'whom I
am indebted for particulars, '* an upright and exemplary man.
After receiving his mortal wound, he was conveyed to the In-
firmary, where ho lingered till April 27. His body was sent
under escort to Boston, where it was temporarily deposited in
the Vassall tomb, King's Chapel. On the 3d of May. it was
conveyed" to Lawrence, and buried with the most imposing
ceremonies. Rev. (Jeo. S. Weaver, his pastor, preached a
funeral discourse from Heb. xi. 4 — the first funeral sermon
of the war : " — " and so it happened," fittingly suggests
Brother Weaver, " that our Denomination, under Providence,
was called to lead in that solemn maruh of funeral obsequies,"
which, commencing thus, in honor of our slain, has stretched
through the years, and is not finished yet. Qod help us, thus
leading in the funeral march, to lead also in the work which
victory demands.

PREFACE.
This number of the Rkgistbr has been compiled with great care
and at no little expense, yet it is doubtless imperfect ; but, if errors
are found in the statistics given, it is hoped that those who notice
them will use their influence to secure more complete and accurate
returns for future numbers.
Some new and interesting matter will be found In this number,
which will add to its value, and should make it wanted in every
Universal ist home.
The Register is considered indispensable as a book of reference,
and is published for the benefit of the Denomination, and, usually,
at an expense not realized A*om its sales. This being the case, it is
expected that the denominational press, clergymen, and others in-
terested, will help to make it known, and extend its circulation.
Cordial thanks are rendered to those who have helped to fbmish
material for this number, and an earnest request is hereby made
that the statistics for 18 G8 be forwarded early from all parts of the
country.

work of providing for the needs of the sick and wounded
14 UNIYERSALIST REGISTER
among the loyal soldiers. In October, 1865, at a meeting
held in Chicago, it assamed a permanent organization for
the promotion of the interests of Universalist Christianitj
in the Northwest. Under its auspices eighty-five thousand
dollars ($85,000) have been raised as a permanent endow-
ment fund for Lombard University, and about seven thoa*
sand dollars ($7,000) for missionary purposes. The Con-
ference has also saved fifty thousand dollars ($50,000) worth
of church property, by rendering aid to the feeble and em-
barrassed societies. It has aided several societies to secure
able and faithful pastors. It has assisted several young
men in preparing for the ministry. At its meetings more
than forty thousand dollars ($40,000) have been pledged for
local and special purposes. The sum of its labors for a year
and three months may be stated at one hundred and eighty
thousand dollars ($180,000), secured for denominational
purposes.

ence is declared to be auxiliary to the General Convention,
and is required to make an annual report of its doings to

Schools. — 1. Clinton Liberal Institute, Clinton, eight
miles from Utica, is under the control of the State Conven-
tion. It was founded in 1831, and is thus, by many years,
the oldest of our literary institutions. However much of
benefit it has co]||ferred upon the denomination in past years,
it has never, profiably, been in a better condition to do good
service than it now is. An extensive course of study has
been arranged, and the students receive diplomas after com-
pleting the course. The school is under good supervision,
the instruction thorough, the discipline mild but firm, and a
moral and social influence pervades the school and boarding-
houses. Whole number of students for the past year, 253 ;
gentlemen, 134; ladies, 119. Attendance: fall term, 156;
winter term, 190 ; summer term, 85.

A GK>OD TEAB'S WORK.
The year 1866 has witnessed the best financial work ever
done for the Universalist denomination in any one j'ear.
There have been given, as nearly as we can estimate, for
various denominational purposes, chiefly educational and
missionary, the following sums : —
In the form of bequests to our educational lustitutions,
about "" ^300,000
In subscriptions and donations for the same, about . . 272,000
For missionary uses, church fUnds, &c., . . . 33,000
For church edifices, dedicated during the year, . . 435,000
Making a total of $1,040,000
or, in round numbers, one million dollars, as the year's addition to
the permanent resources of the denomination.
The transient contributions for the year, or annual expen-
ditures, cannot be ascertained with any very near approach
to accuracy. An approximate estimate has been made, as
follows :
Of the 512 ministers In fellowship, it may be presumed
that four-flfths of them are in active service, and on
salaries averaging $700 — which would require . $287,000
The 700 organized societies spend probably for repairs,
music, fuel, light, services of sexton, &c., an average
of $200 — making 140,000
Then we pay for our several periodicals, each year, not
less than 90,000
For denominational books, Including Sunday School
books, about 40,000
For teachers In our schools and colleges, some . . 53,000
And for incidental expenses In these institutions, . 15,000
Making a total of about 625,000
This added to the above, 1,040,000
Gives a round sum of $1,665,000
Over a million and a half paid or contributed in the iiitjrests of
VDiverssiUsm during the year lb6G.
AND ALMANAC FOR 1M7. 71
From the above it appears that our bequests and contribu-
tions for special purposes during the year have amounted to
nearly twice the sum of our regular annual expenditures for
the support of public worship, Sunday Schools, denomina-
tional books, periodicals, and educational institutions, all
together. Is this true of any other denomination ? Will it
ever be the case with us any future year ?
BIOGRAPHICAL RECORD.
Rev. Ammi Bond died in Conneaut, Ohio, Jan. 3, 1866,
aged 63. A native of New Hampshire, his early life was
spent in that State and in Vermont. At 16 he became a
member of the Methodist Church. He afterwards resided
two years in Quebec (where he married) and in Montreal,
removing thence to Philadelphia. Here he attended upon
the ministry of the late Rev. S. R. Smith, and became a
confirmed and happy Universalist. His attention was soon
called to the gospel ministry. Removing to Vermont, he
was fellowshipped by the Green Mountain Association, in
1832. The next year he was ordained, and he was after-
wards settled in Carroll, N. Y., Saybrook, Ohio, Adrian,
Mich, Monroe, Ohio, Beaver, and Pittsburg, Pa. He had
resided in Conneaut, Pa., and vicinity, since 1843, till last
summer, when he removed to Conneaut, Ohio.
Mr. Bond was an acceptable preacher in our connection
some thirty-five years. Having a strong and logical mind,
he possessed more than ordinary pulpit power. For two
years he had suffered much from disease, his mind failing
with his body ; but he died as he had lived, in hope of a
re-union with all he had loved and lost, in the Home Im-
72 UXITERSALIST REGISTER
mortal. He left a widow and seven children to mourn his
loss.
Captain Nathaniel G. B. Dexter, familiarl}^ known as
Grandpa Dexter, died in Pawtucket, R. I., April 8, 1866,
aged 77. He was a native of Groton, Mass., but removing
early in life to Pawtucket, he became a member and subse-
quently a teacher in a Sunday School established there, after
the model of the English Sunday Schools. An interest in
Sunday Schools was thus awakened, which he retained after
they assumed a strictly religious character, and which he
carried with hito to the day of his death. In his old age it
was his greatest delight to visit them, and to address the
pupils, who always hailed his coming with joy. He was an
earnest advocate for temperance, never having tasted a drop
of liquor in his life. Captain Dexter was a devoted Univer-
salist, and a member of the Church in Pawtucket. He died
calmly and sweetly in the faith he had adorned by a long and
exemplary life. He was a teacher in the first Sunday School
in the United States.
SiLVANus Packard, long connected with the School Street
Church, Boston, died in April, 1866, at the advanced age of
76. He was blest with great wealth, the larger portion of
which he gave to Tufts College. He had been a generous
benefactor of the institution from its start, and, dying with-
out issue, he bequeathed the bulk of his large estate to pro-
mote its usefulness in years to come. It is understood that
besides other and far greater benefits to the College, his
will contemplates the endowment of a theological pro-
fessorship, the education annually of ten students free of
charge, and the expending of $200 annually for prises, to
encourage general excellence. By his generosity to the
AXD ALMANAC FOS 1M7. 7t
cause, he still speaks, bidding our men of means to ^^ go
and do likewise."
Rev. THEODOiiE Clapp died in Louisville, Ky., May 16,
1866, aged 74. He was a native of Easthampton, Mass.,
and a graduate of Williams College, in the same class with
William CuUen Bryant. His theological studies were pur-
sued at Andover, and he was licensed as a minister of the
Presbyterian Church in 1817. " In 1822," says the Star in
the West^ "he became pastor of the First Presbyterian
Church of New Orleans, succeeding the bnlliant and elo-
quent Sylvester Larned, whose fame as a pulpit orator is
yet one of the traditions of the Mississippi Valley. As
pastor of this church Mr. Clapp achieved great celebrity,
and became widely known for effective pulpit gifts and the
highest order of sacred eloquence. Henry Clay pronounced
him the most natural pulpit orator he ever heard. His
church in New Orleans was invariably crowded, and for
many years he was one of the most popular pulpit orators of
America. Some ten or twelve years after his settlement in
New Orleans, changes occurred in his theological opinions,
which led to the dissolution of his relations with the Pres-
byterian Church. He was deposed from the office of the
gospel ministry for heresy, and was afterwards known as an
independent minister, cherishing Unitarian and Universalist
opinions. The change in his relations with the Mississippi
Presbytery did not, however, involve a separation from his
parish. The church building at an earlier date had passed
under the control of the well-known Hebrew millionnaire,
Judah Truro, and by his liberality Mr. Clapp occupied the
church and preached to his old hearers, deriving his salary
from the income of the pew rents, which income was placed
under the immediate control of Mr. Clapp. His pastoral
services will long be remembered with gratitude in New
7
74 UXITEBSALIST BEGISTEB
Orleans. During twenty seasons of epidemical cholera and
yellow fever, Mr. Clapp was at the post of dut}*, and hy his
ministry of consolation carried comfort to the great multi-
tudes stricken by the pestilence. His *• Autobi(^aphical
Recollections ' is largely devoted to incidents pertaining to
these memorable seasons, and is one of the most interesting
volumes ever published. Several years ago, failing health
compelled him to relinquish the pastoral charge of the church
at New Orleans, since which time he has lived in compara-
tive retirement in Louisville. His death, it seems, was not
unexpected, his health being very feeble for some time pre-
vious to his decease. The Louisville Journal^ in announcing
his death, says : ^ He seemed to have no particular disease, and
his dissolution seems to have been, the result of a general
giving away of the whole system, mental and physical. The
mortal machinery was worn out, and at length ceased to
perform its functions. His reason forsook her august throne
weeks ago, and did not, so far as we are advised at the pres-
ent writing, return to it.' Mr. Clapp leaves a widow and
two sons to weep over his departure."
Major General Lysander Cutler died at his home in Mil-
waukee, July 30, 1866. A native of Royalton, Mass., early
in life he removed to Dexter, Me., where he acquired the
reputation of being an enterprising business man. Much of
the prosperity of that growing manufacturing town is owing
to him. At last, meeting with reverses, he removed to Mil-
waukee, where he resided at the breaking out of the rebel-
lion. Tendering his services to the Governor of the State,
he was appointed to the command of the 6th Wisconsin
^giment. In the second battle of Bull Run he was severely
wounded in the thigh, fi-om the effects of which he never
ftiUy recovered, though in a few weeks he reeonwd his pott
AND ALMANAC POR 1M7. 75
in the army, and was promoted to a Brigadiership. He led
the first column that met the rebels on the bloody field of
Gettysburg, and was in the whole of that terrible strife,
having three horses shot from under him, but escaping un-
harmed. He was with the Army of the Potomac in its ter-
rible struggles in the march of the Wilderness and the siege
of Richmond. Receiving a wound in the face at the taking
of the South Side Railroad, he was granted leave of absence,
and was finally detailed, on account of infirmities, on special
service in Michigan. At the close of the war, after receiv-
ing the appointment of Major General by brevet, he resigned
his commission, and re-engaged in business in Milwaukee.
If his army record was honorable, his devotedness to
Universalism was no less so. In Dexter, Me., he was for
many years the heaviest paying member of the society.
When in Milwaukee there was no Universalist meeting, he
was an attendant of the Unitarian Church ; but when the
time arrived for the establishment of a Universalist Society,
he was one of the first to enroll his name as a member, and
to give his means and influence in favor of the movement.
He did not live, however, to see but the beginning, and he
passed away before his hopes for a permanent society in his
Western home were fully realized. In his death a loyal
people were bereaved, a young society met with a heavy loss,
and a widow and several children and grand-children were
left to mourn. He died at the age of 59.
Rev. Seth Barnes, the successful and beloved pastor of
the church in Minneapolis^ Minn., died suddenly in a fit of
apoplexy, Sunday morning, August 12, 1866.
Awaking that morning, he conversed in a cheerful, hope-
ful spirit, and was feeling better than usual, his health hav-
ing been poor for some time. After partly rising fi*om his
76 rKITERSALIST BEGI8TSR
bed, he laid back again, and passed away without a groan.
We have heard that he often expressed a wish to die in this
wa}'. His sermon was lying on the table, and the last wonls
were these : '* He hath tasted death for every man." In this
faith Br. Barnes died. In the full belief of God's love, and
power, and eternal goodness, he passed Yictoriousl3' on. His
last delivered sermon was fVom the text, "For the spirit it-
self beareth witness with our spirit that we are the children
of God."
Brother Barnes was much beloved by his congregation,
with whom he had been connected eleven years, and for whom
he had labored well and faithfully. As a man and a citizen
he enjoyed a large share of the confidence of his neighbor
and fellow-citizens, arising from his kindness and urbanity,
no less than from his interest in all that concerned the pros-
perity and welfare of his place of residence. The end of
such a man is peace ; the pain is to those who are left be-
hind. His loss falls heavily upon our whole church in the
West, and especially upon the Universalists of Minnesota.
He left a wife in feeble health, to whom he had been more
than husband, to mourn her irreparable loss.
Of Mr. Barnes' age, and the history of his ministry, we
have no particulars. This short notice we have culled from
our Western papers. The biography of such a man should
be written and presented.
Dr. John Brooks, long and favorably known in the
Universalist denomination, died at the place of his residence
in Bemardston, Mass., Sept. 9, 1866. He was bom in
Worcester, Jan. 12, 1783. His early advantages for obtain-
ing an education were limited, and he was religiously taught
the strictest doctrines of the Calviuistic faith. But a reten-
tive memory enabled him to overcome, to some extent, the
AND ALMANAC FOR 1M7. 77
deficiencies in his early school-life, while it made him thor-
oughly familiar with the doctrines in which he was reared.
At the age of sixteen he commenced teaching, by which he
obtained means to attend an academy a few terms. His
preparatory medical studies were pursued with the celebrated
Dr. Kittredge, of Walpole, N. H. ; and he commenced
practice in Newfane and Dummerston, Vt., at the age of 28.
While pursuing the duties of his profession, his attention
was called to questions of religious doctrine ; and a diligent
study of the Scriptures brought him to the belief of the final
salvation of a world. In connection with his practice, he
entered upon the duties of a Christian minister. In 1822,
he removed to Bernardston, Mass., and became the pastor
of the Universalist Society there, preaching also in neigh-
boring towns, as opportunity offered. After a few years, a
difficulty in his throat compelled him to relinquish regular
public speaking, and he gradually withdrew from the minis-
try, devoting himself entirely to the practice of medicine,
which he steadily pursued till within a few months of his
death.
Dr. Brooks was an excellent citizen, and his interest in
every good cause made him to be respected in the commu-
nity. His townsmen showed their appreciation of his worth
by electing him seven years to the State Legislature ; and
he filled the duties of his office with dignity and honor.
As a physician, he was skilled and faithful. Few excelled
him. His interest in his patients was not one of dollars and
cents, but of hearty sympathy. He is remembered with
gratitude in many families.
Aged as he was, he emphatically lived in the present
rather than in the past, being deeply interested in and thor-
oughly conversant with the religious and political affairs of
the country to the day of his death. Of commanding pres-
7»
78 UNIVERSALIST REGISTER
ence, with a large fVind of knowledge, a perfect treasury ot
anecdote and story, he was a pleasant and instructive com-
panion, and could entertain a philosopher or amuse a child.
As a preacher, he is favorably remembered by the older
citizens of Bernardston and vicinity ; and much of the lib-
eral sentiment prevailing there is to be ascribed to his early
labors. He was one of the ex-ministers who are a blessiug
to the society with which they are connected. He was
deeply religions in his nature, and benevolent in his disposi-
tion. Till within a few years of his death he occupied a
place in the choir, and nothing but absolute necessit}- could
keep him from church on the Sabbath. He died, as he had
lived, in the faith of the gospel, falling sweetly and gently
to sleep on the Lord's day — that of all the week he loved
best.
Rev. Henry Lyon died in Williamsburg, N. Y., Sept. 16,
1866, aged 52. We have no means of learning the exact
date of his entrance upon the ministry, which extended over
a period of about thirty years. He was long and favorably
known to the Univcrsalist public as the Publishing Agent of
the ^^ Ambassador," and the publisher of Univcrsalist books in
New York City. Those who a few years ago were accus-
tomed to frequent the " Ambassador " office, will always re-
member his genial smile, his quiet demeanor, and his accom-
modating spirit, manifested alike to all. Free from jealousy,
from envy, from peevishness, from all the foibles which
make the character unamiable, he possessed the positive
virtues of a loving heart, a true fidelity, a consecrated de-
votion to what he deemed Christian truth, and to the means
by which that truth is to be disseminated among men.
Three years before his death, while attending the New
York Convention, he contracted a violent cold, which rapidly
AKD ALMANAC FOR 1«7. 79
developed a pulmonary consumption. Violent hemorrhages
of the lungs followed, by which he was completely pros-
trated, and brought near the grave. He rallied, however,
and, though subject to frequent attacks of bleeding, was
able to attend to business, and even preach at interv^als.
His disease reached its crisis about ten days before his
death. He was conscious that the inevitable hour was at
hand, and, making such preparations as were necessary, he
committed himself, with child-like confidence, to the hands
of his Heavenly Father. A wife and a large family of chil-
dren, with a wide circle of attached friends, mourn the loss of
a good man and a sincere and devout Chiistian.
Rev. H. L. Bingham, a recent graduate of the Canton
Theological School, died in the autumn. Dr. Fisher says of
him:
" He entered the Theological School in September, 1865,
and, after remaining in it some months, left under the sad
coercion of failing health ; but with a hope, destined never
to be realized, of returning under more favorable conditions
to consummate the cherished purposes of his life. The great
love and longing of his heart was for the Christian ministry ;
and such earnest devotion, joined to good talents, and a win-
ning disposition, sincere, generous, and manly, would no
doubt have made him useful and beloved therein.
Had his life been spared, his work would, I doubt not,
have been at once honorable to God, useful to man, and
gratifying to himself. However bright such prospects might
seem, our Heavenly Father has called him away from them
all to himself; because he had a better use and service for
him. This must be true, if our Father acts on a wise and
true economy, which of course he does.
Hia decease is a loss to the denomination ; for such noble
80 UNIVERSALTST REGISTER
young men are our jewels. His name will often be recalled
with a kind remembrance, and a sympathetic word, b}' many
who knew and loved him."
Mr. Bingham left a wife, amiable and talented, and quite
widely known by the productions of her pen, with whom he
had been united but a few months, to mourn his loss.
Rev. Charles W. Mellen, pastor of the church in Taun-
ton, Mass., departed this life, after a short but distressing
illness, Oct. 22, 1866. A native of Phillipston, Mass., he
was born June 18, 1818. At the age of seven he removed
with his parents to Greenfield. He received his education
in the town of Hardwick. With a view to the ministrj*, he
studied with Rev. J. II. Willis, preaching his first sermon in
Stafford, Conn., where Mr. Willis was then settled. His
first settlement was in Royalton, Mass., in 1839. His sev-
eral subsequent settlements were in Orange, Foxboro*, Can-
ton, Chelmsford, Weymouth, Dorchester, and Taunton.
Mr. Mellen was a consecrated minister. It is great praise
to say, that he never did harm ; it is greater praise to add,
that he always did good. His manners were simple. He
had no ostentation. He always felt what he said. In his
entire ministry, he was profoundly and thoroughly sincere.
He had unusual ability and excellent culture, though not of
that showy quality which is called popular. He was in-
dustrious. He knew his duties, and he performed them.
H3 was heartily devoted to every good work. The cause ot
temperance had in him a champion ; and in his death the
slave and the freed man may sincerely mourn. He was hab-
itually cheerful. When he gave his hand, a smile always
accompanied the act. By his decease, a denomination A
Christians suffers a loss that will long be felt. He was re
spected by all persons of all denominations, and hit sadden
AMD ALMANAC FOB 1M7. 81
death was mourned by the whole community in which he
lived.
He left a wife, with whom he had lived twenty-six years,
to mourn the loss of one of the kindest of companions.
Rev. Stlvanus Cobb, D.D., departed this life at his resi-
dence in East Boston, Mass., Oct. 31, 1866. Dr. Cobb was
bom in Norway, Me., July, 1788, and died at the venerable
age of sixty-eight years and three months. His early edu-
cation was wholly under Orthodox influences ; but early in
life he became a Universalist, and this without the help of
any teacher, or any book but the Bible. For several years,
when quite young, he was a successful teacher in the winter
schools of his native county. His preparatory theological
studies were pursued with the Rev. Sebastian Streeter, and
his first sermon was preached in the pulpit of his honored
teacher, in Portsmouth, N. H., at the age of twenty-one.
He was ordained at the session of the Eastern Associa-
tion (now the Maine Convention), held in Winthrop in 1821.
His first settlement was in Waterville, Me. where his ear-
nest labors resulted, not only in the establishment of a vig-
orous society, but also in the wide diffusion of the doctrine
through the entire Kennebec valley. From Waterville he
removed to Maiden, Mass., and became pastor of the society
there, with equally successful results. After a pastorate of
ten years he removed to Waltham. While ^ere he started
the Christian Freeman. In 1849 he moved to East Boston,
where he resided till his death. Three years of the time he
was the pastor of the East Boston society. His intellect
and strength, however, were given to the care of the Free-
many and the toil and labor he bestowed upon it would have
broken down a less vigorous constitution. In 1862 the
Freeman and Trumpet were united, Dr. Cobb remaining as
82 UKITERSALIST RSGISTEB
Theological editor. Two years ago he retired from edito-
rial labor, after a service in that capacity of about thirty
years.
Dr. Cobb was constantly engaged in writing. His teem-
ing brain was ever elaborating ideas, to w^hich he felt that he
must give expression. Many of his earlier controversial
sermons were published and widely circulated in Maine and
elsewhere, doing good service for the cause. His " Discus-
sions" with Dr. Adams and Mr. Hudson, involving the
subjects of everlasting punishment and the annihilation of
the wicked, were also put into book form, after appearing in
the columns of the Freeman. The " Compend of Divinity *'
is an elaborate work, and recognized as a standard in the
denomination. This series of books very fitly closed with
his " Commentary on the New Testament," which is received
with favor wherever it is known.
The Trustees of Tuft's College, recognizing his ability
and learning, conferred upon him, two yeai'S before his
death, the honorary degree of Doctor of Divinity. It is
seldom the degree is so worthily bestowed, or so gracefully
worn. His merits as a writer, preacher, and theologian, are
universally conceded, both in and out of the denomination.
Among the stalwart minds which have done so much to
establish the doctrine of universal salvation on a permanent
basis, his will ever hold a conspicuous position. And he
was a Universalist, not onl}*^ in his creed. He was in hearty
sympathy with the denomination. For it it was alike his
pride and joy to labor. He saw, with a clearness of vision
that few have, that the cause should be established on a
right basis ; and, therefore, he was the earnest advocate of
temperance, freedom, and every true reform.
Dr. Cobb had been in declining health for many months
previous to his death, and was fblly conscious that his work
AKB ALMANAC FOR 1887. 88
was finished. During the summer he was accustomed to
converse freely with his family of his approaching departure.
He was always strong in the faith, always resigned, always
cheerful and full of hope. Though his closing hours were
those of unconsciousness, yet even in his delirium he was
continually preaching, rehearsing the texts, '^ Praise the
Lord ; " " How great is his goodness." In a ripe old age
he has passed away, and not only a family, but a denomina-
tion mourns. " The memory of the just is blessed."
Rev. Calvin Gardner, whose decease should have been
noticed in our last issue, died very suddenly in Waterville,
Me., March 23, 1865, aged sixty-six. He was a native of
Hingham, Mass., and in his early life wrought steadily at
his trade, in one of the mechanic arts. Becoming interested
in the doctrine of universal salvation, he entered the minis-
try in 1825, and the following ye&v was settled over the
society in Charlestown, Mass. He afterwards preached in
Duxbury two years, and in 1830 accepted a call from the
First Universalist society in Lowell. While in that city he
projected and published, in company with another, the " Uni-
versalist and Ladiesi' Reposito)*]/" now known simply as " The
Ladies* Bepositoi'y.** In 1833 he removed to Waterville, Me.,
to take charge of the Universalist society there, made vacant
by the removal of Rev. Sylvanus Cobb to Maiden, Mass.
His pastorship in that beautiful village continued for twenty
years. Afterwards he was settled two years in Province-
town, Mass., at the expiration of which he returned to his
home in Waterville, and devoted his time to the culture of
his land, and the work of an itinerant. During his resi-
dence in Maine, he was for several years an associate editor
of the " Oospd Banner" and one yeai* represented Water-
ville in the State Legislature.

Br. Gardner was an able preaeher. In the days of his
manly strength few ministers exerted a wider influence. At
the conventions and associations of Maine which he gener-
ally attended, he was usually selected to deliver the closing
sermon, as one who was sure to leave a good impression on
the minds of those present. He always had something to
say, and his hearers were sure to remember wficU he said.
Some of the best sermons the writer ever listened to came
from his lips.
No man could be more highly respected in the community
in which he lived, and none more lamented in death. He
was twice married, leaving a widow, two daughters, and
several grandchildren te mourn his loss.
OUB CSINTENABT.
The question has been raised during the past year, when
the Universalist Centenary will occur. We have given the
subject some thought, and have come to the conclusion that
no time is so fitting for its observance as the year 1870,
which marks a century iVom the landing of John Murray, at
Good Luck, New Jersey. It is indeed true, as some have
suggested, that Universalism had been preached in this
country before that event. So was the doctrine of ^^ jastifi-
cation by faith" preached and believed before Martin
Luther*s day ; but it never, after the days of the apostles,
became a living power in the church, till it came from the
lips of the converted Monk. There were those who held to
'' perfect sanctification " before the time of the Wesleys;
but none made it a central doctrine, till they preached it in
England. So Universalism, after its condemnation by the
Council of Constantinople, A. D. 553, never became a oon-
tral thought — a living, homing power in the world— till it
AKD ALMANAC FOR 1867. 85
was dispensed from the eloquent lips of John Murray, as he
travelled through New England and the Middle States,
preaching to listening and eager crowds. Then it began to
exist as a distinctive doctrine, and its progress has been
steadily onward to the present day. We believe our tnie
Centenary will occur in 1870, rather than, as has been sug-
gested, at the organization of the Church in Gloucester,
Mass. ; and we trust suitable preparation will be made for
its proper observance in that year. Let it be a year of
jubilee ; of general rejoicing and activity through the denom-
ination ; and of the laying of our free-will offerings on the
altar of Universalism.
MISOELULETEOUS.
The True Apostles' Creed. — There is one God, and
one mediator, between God and men, the man Christ Jesus ;
who gave himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due
time. 1 Tim. ii. 5, 6.
An Apt Reply. — Two little girls, one from an Episcopal
family, and the other a Universalist, were conversing togeth-
er on the sin of profane swearing. The little Episcopalian
said ^^ she would not swear, because if she did God would
burn her forever." The little Universalist replied, " That
would be worse than swearing, and a good God would do
no such wicked thing." Was not the child's thought wiser
than that of many an astute theologian?
Rightly Viewed. — An eminent divine. President of a
New-England College, conversing with a student who was
a Universalist, made the following candid admission : " Uni-
\ versalism, rightly viewed, is the noblest and most ennobling
8
86 UKITEBSALIST REGISTBR
doctrine conceived by the human mind." However wrongly
some professed Universalists may regard their doctrine, —
and we are inclined to think there are many whose concep-
tion of the truth is low and unworthy, — it seems that the
divine above-mentioned himself had a correct idea of what
Universalism really is. No other thought is so grand as
that of a Deity overruling all things for good and bringing a
world in love and obedience to him ; and none other other is
so well adapted to inspire sentiments of obedience and love
in the hearts of those who rightly receive it.
Quoting Scripture. — A curious illustration of the kind of
Scripture often quoted to prove controverted points, occurred
in a village lyceum. The question under discussion was,
whether " spectres ever appear." One man stoutly con-
tended for the negative, because the Bible says, " We are
all rapidly approaching that undiscovered country from
whose bourne no traveller returns " ; and when his opponent
affirmed that the passage was not in the Bible, the reply was,
" Well, if it is not in the Bible, it is in the hymn-book." It
is needless to say that the question was decided in the neg-
ative, for the evidence was deemed authoritative. The joke
of the thing was, that nobody present knew what the quota-
tion was from, and none could tell but that it was in the
hymn-book.
The Rule that Wouldn't Work Both Wats. — Old
Father Pitts, of Winthrop, Me., was a life-long Univeraalist.
He was a blacksmith, in moderate circumstances, with a large
family to support. Father Thurston was the town's minister,
for whose support all were taxed. When Mr. P. was called
upon for his tax, he asked the collector to see if Mr. Thurs-
ton would not consent to remit it, since he [Mr. Pitts] had
AND ALMANAC FOR 1807. 87
not attended Mr. T.'s meetings during the year. Mr. Thurs-
ton's reply was, *' The doors are open ; it is your duty to
attend ; the tax must be paid."
The next j'ear when the collector called, Mr. Pitts pre-
sented an account against Mr. Thurston for shoeing his
horse, and requested the collector to ask the parson to per-
mit the account to offset the tax. The minister soon called
in great excitement, expressing his astonishment at the
charge on the blacksmith's books, and affirming that his horse
had not been in Mr. P.'s shop for the year. " I know it,"
was the reply, *' but my doors are open ; it is your duty to
bring him, and I don't see but the account must be paid."
Mr. Pitts was never again troubled with a tax for the sup-
port of Mr. Thurston.
An Unfortunate Dilemma. A minister in another de-
nomination than ours, once attempted to preach fi-om the
words found in Hebrews ii. 14, 15 : " Forasmuch then as the
children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself
took part of the same : that through death he might destroy
him that hath the power of death, that is, the devil ; and de-
liver them who through fear of death were all their life-time
subject to bondage." *' I thought," said he, in relating it,
*' I understood the passage. I got along very well in de-
stroying death and him that had the power of death ; but
when I came to deliver those who through fear of death were
all their life-time subject to bondage, I found I was in diffi-
culty. If I applied it to the righteous it seemed inappro-
priate to say that they were in bondage to the fear of death ;
and if I applied it to the wicked I found that they would
then be saved. I closed my sermon as best I could. Though
apparently satisfying my hearers, I did not satisfy myself:
and from that hour a train of thought commenced which did
88 UNIYERSALIST REGISTER.
not cease till I embraced the doctrine of Universal Salva-
tion." Was not the dilemma of that good man one in which
every one, not believing in Universalism, must find himself,
who attempts to explain the passage? The above is an
actual occurrence, and was related to the writer by the min-
ister referred to.
Short and Expressive. — Rev. Seth Stetson, of Maine,
now in his ninety-first year, like many other aged ministers,
is dependent upon the A-ee-will ofierings of his fViends for
support. But no man ever had a serener trust than he.
"The Lord will provide," is his invariable reply to those
who ask him how he expects to meet the exigencies of the
future.
For many years it has been the pleasure of the brethren
attending the Maine Convention, to make up a purse for his
benefit. The first collection for this purpose was at the
meeting in Turner in 1851. As the sum of fifty dollars was
put in his hands by the Moderator, the old saint arose, and
with streaming eyes, exclaimed, "Brethren, I thank the
Lord — and you too ! "
Should any reader of this incident forward to him, in
Brunswick, Maine, a New Year's or other donation, the
donor will receive the good old man's trembling autograph,
and, doubtless, an equally happy expression of gratitude.
